It seems that Sony did something right with its latest firmware release – the RSS reader seems to be a feature that a lot of people want on their PSP. So many people want it that there are already a couple projects being worked on creating a homebrew RSS reader for 1.50 PSP’s that can rival Sony’s official reader.



Enter liquid8d and Devour RSS, the latest application designed to retrieve RSS feeds, written in Lua. This is still a work in progress, but it can currently choose connections, browse offline, update feeds at startup, and sports customizeable themes and skins. There are a few problems with hanging, not finishing downloads and not allowing redirects, but hopefully that will all be sorted out in the next release. Don’t forget to read the README for installation instructions and control layout.
