Personally, like others, my only problem is on the go. I use Pan am quite 
happy reading the news groups with it. If the website when reddit style 
with it, including logins to remember read posts, I'd start using the web 
interface. Even if it didn't remember what I read, I could use it to 
check for new posts when I'm not at my computer which I currently do not 
do.
