DENVER, CO--(Marketwire - July 24, 2007) - NewsGator Technologies, Inc., the leading RSS
company, today announced the availability of NewsGator Mobile for iPhone, a
free reader that complements the great design and interface of the iPhone.
NewsGator Mobile for iPhone works in conjunction with any free NewsGator
Online account.
With the addition of the iPhone reader, NewsGator continues to lead the
mobile RSS arena with a broad set of solutions that not only provide an
optimal feed-reading experience on a wide range of devices, but also
synchronize with the full suite of NewsGator products including
NewsGator Online,
NetNewsWire for Mac,
FeedDemon for Windows, and NewsGator business offerings such as
NewsGator Enterprise Server (NGES),
NewsGator Enterprise On-Demand (NGEOD) and
NewsGator Syndication Services.
"The beauty of NewsGator's new mobile-optimized, Web-based feed reader
isn't just that it works well with an iPhone -- it's that it syncs my
subscription list, including which messages I've already read, with
NetNewsWire on my Mac," said John Gruber of Daring Fireball, a top
Apple-focused blog.
NewsGator Mobile for iPhone is now free for all users at
http://m.newsgator.com and is optimized for the iPhone's unique full-sized
touch screen. The reader provides a streamlined reading experience
specifically designed for the mobile user, and makes it easy to quickly
access, read and mark feeds as read on the go. The simple login
automatically detects the iPhone and routes the user to the iPhone reader,
while directing other mobile devices to the standard, now-free NewsGator
Mobile reader.
"The iPhone provides a best-of-breed mobile experience that is in line with
our focus on creating exceptional reading products," said Brian Kellner,
general manager of consumer products at NewsGator. "In the tradition of
NetNewsWire, FeedDemon and NewsGator Enterprise Server, we felt it was
important to deliver a fantastic reading experience for the iPhone. At
NewsGator, we are committed to developing new ways for people to easily and
quickly access their favorite feeds, and we are inspired to deliver
outstanding experiences on the iPhone so that people can have the power of
information within their reach at anytime."
Additional mobile products are available for RIM BlackBerry devices,
Java-enabled and Windows Mobile-based smartphones and include additional
features, such as clippings and offline reading, that aren't part of the
free NewsGator Mobile reader. These products are available for download at
