What's that in your pocket? It's Silicon Valley Watcher mobile I hope...announcing SVW to go!
I'm very pleased to announce a technology partnership with the fine folk at FreeRange Communications, in Portland, Oregon. Now you can take SVW with you, and ten other Silicon Valley RSS feeds, for free! There is also a full featured version for $20 per year that gives you more feeds and more control.
We'll be announcing more such partnerships, which showcase interesting technologies and applications. If you would like to partner with Silicon Valley Watcher, please contact SVW Special Projects Honcho Paul Hrisko, (Paul at Hrisko.com)
The FreeRange mobile RSS reader updates quickly and it works with many phones, not just the top mobile smart data devices, Treo, Blackberry, etc. It is fast and all you need is a Java based cell phone.
We only have space for ten feeds but, we will rotate new ones into the reader on a regular basis.
Here are the ten you get with SVW in your pocket!

How to Download Your Free SVW Mobile
Just point your phone's browser to http://sv.mwap.at and download the application.
-Once the application is downloaded, scroll through the menu options to see the functionality, choose your Wap gateway settings.
-Then click “Update”—this will bring all the feeds down to your phone, and later new posts and articles.
-Click “Full Story” to get the whole article pushed to your phone. The navigation is optimized based on your phone type, and is highly functional—even on a Blackberry you can navigate with just the number pad.
Most phones are supported, but it doesn't work on Verizon unless you have a Blackberry or a Treo. And if you have a Treo, you'll need to download Java.
