You could look at AvantGo.
USA Today is one of the channels you can download into AvantGo.

Sorry, you also asked for instructions... the AvantGo site is very good at walking new users through the setup process.
Start at the account sign up screen.

Hello SL1771
Try www.turcic.com you will be able to read every news paper possible.
read the site instructions, also turcic uses a huge database .ixl files which does not use much of your ram on your handheld like avantgo.
Give them both a try, and see which one you like the best.

Hello S1771
I would say that it is an 80% chance that you could obtain the particular link that you are seeking.
sign up on Turcic, and place your site in the "New Links" section if you want more specific information send Alexander PM.
Again, I almost certain that you can have your specific link on your hh.

Re: Certain Web Page
AvantGo lets you add 'custom' channels. You can get most web pages added to your AvantGo account.Originally posted by SL1771

One exception -- if the web page is very popular (large number of subscribers) AvantGo restrict it. This is so they can negotiate some commercial agreement with the site owner -- after all, it's AvantGo's proxy servers channeling the requests and AvantGo's clients on your device, so they feel they need to make *some* money somewhere.
