Which is better in terms of speed, ease of use, and reliance?

I use Avantgo, but some of the sites they list in their directory haven't been updated for awhile. There's also a download limitation for each channel that you download unless you subscribe. I use it for basic news, weather, and sports updates.

Unless you have a NEED for either of them, I would forgo either. Both take up a lot of RAM real estate, and if not used daily, I don't see the reason for them. Don't get me wrong, I tried many things for this type of functionality, including hosting my own Avantgo server to get around the limitations of the non-subscribed users on the official server. And am still running it for those who have a genuine need at my work, but if you can go without I would.
