Listen to RSS News on Your iPod

An anonymous reader writes "Adam Tow and Alex King have announced the availability of Read it to Me 1.0, which creates a playlist of MP3 files in iTunes from your unread RSS news headlines in NetNewsWire that you can sync to your iPod. The software utilizes Apple's Text-to-Speech capability and requires Mac OS X 10.2.6 or higher and the full version of NetNewsWire."
