RSS feeds
RSS provides a way for Web sites to distribute their
content outside of a Web browser. A news Web site
might have an RSS feed which contains breaking stories,
while a magazine Web site may provide an RSS feed
with excerpts of their latest articles.
An RSS feed is a file containing a list of information
items, each of which has a title, a description and a link
to the Web page.
The RSS feeds application enables you to get
information from the Internet into an easy-to-view
format without browsing the Web sites. You can browse
information from dozens, or hundreds, of Web sites
without ever visiting them.
Note: Before you can use the RSS feeds application you
must set up your Internet accounts in the phone, see
Setting up accounts on page 102.
Subscribing to RSS feeds
To add an RSS feed to your application you select
Multimedia > RSS feeds > RSS feeds > Add feed and
enter the Web address of a feed.
Tip An easy way to subscribe to a new feed is to navigate
to an RSS/XML link in the Web browser. Select the link
and the Add feed dialog is opened with the Web address
of the feed already entered.

application a list of

feeds is displayed..
