The latest version of the the RSS reader application RSS Central has now been released to the Marketplace. RSS Central provides a fast, feature-packed and attractive way to access up-to-date news from your favorite sites.

- all downloaded articles are stored locally and can be accessed even if you lose your internet connection.
- easily track which articles you have read, including the ability to mark all articles in a feed as read or unread, or even whole groups of feeds together.
- a flexible “keywords” feature which helps you to easily locate articles that contain subjects that you are interested in.
- import and export subscriptions in .opml format using DropBox.
- a “refresh at launch” option that automatically updates all your subscriptions each time RSS Central is opened.
- support for sending articles by email, text message, or to your Instapaper account for later reading.
- support for international character-set encodings including Windows-1250, Windows-1251, Windows-1252 and ISO-8859-2.
- all new icons and splash screen to help make the app even more pleasant to have around!
