Anyone know of a good rss widget that has the option to take up the whole screen, not just a single line and will show you all your different feeds ordered by most recent insread of one widget per feed? I love newsrob, but am looking for a widget equivelent. Thanks for any help!

I don't know of a widget that will take up the entire screen. I would like to know of a widget like that too.

I'm currently using AnyRSS widget (paid version). It has a 1x4 or 1x1 widget. I wish there were bigger ones though.

What about Minimal Reader (Pro)?
To quote Android Market...
Description

Meet Minimal Reader Pro, the only customizable News *WIDGET* with a handy *Pop-Up* function ! Offline or online, never miss your favourite news with this simple and elegant user interface !
*********************
To start using Minimal Reader Pro, you need to add it on your homescreen as a widget : long press on your home screen and select "Widgets".
*********************
** News reading has never been easier, even with large amount of sources :
_ 5 Widgets available : 4x1, 4x2, 4x3, 4x4 (works with all launchers) and a Scrollable/Resizable one (works with compatible launchers only)
_ Display the latest news titles from your favourite websites/blogs right on your desktop and easily scroll through them.
_ Import your Google Reader Subscriptions, Labels or add your own RSS/Atom feeds.
_ Please use Google Reader labels (folders) to regroup your feeds, importing and refreshing will be MUCH FASTER than importing each feed individually !
_ When you add a feed to a label (folder) in google reader, it will be automaticly synced with the widget, no need to re-import.
_ Click on a news title to open the full story in a customizable Pop-up window, works in offline mode too !
_ Swipe left or right on a pop-up to read the next or previous news article.
_ While reading an article you can share it, set it as favourite or read it in the browser.
_ Customize the widget and the pop-up to match your home screen.
_ Many settings available : Filter the News by age, auto scroll, auto refresh ...
_ You can add as many feeds as you want on the same widget or separate them in several widgets.

I was using it on my Ascend, and it ran fine, but I haven't lately. I'm going widgetless to make my poor little phone pick up some speed.
