I’ve been a reader for over seven years now (started when I was shopping for my PB 1400) and you guys have always had the best insight on portable technologies, so here’s my question: I was reading about the new iPod’s “store text notes” feature and saw on the site where Apple mentioned “Now you can have the information you need – from restaurant reviews to concert guides to news articles – right at your fingertips.” It wasn’t until I read the “news articles” one that I started to wonder, would it be possible to have an Avant Go-type service for the iPod?

Is it possible for Apple to do this themselves via iSync?

You can get news headlines on your iPod now with apps like MyPod or Pod2Go but we expect enhanced news collection features to be added to iSync in coming revisions.
