Jason,

in fairness very few people read RSS on a Treo and if long text posts take forever to load that is the fault of your Treo, your RSS reader or your Internet connection.

If the issue is with Treo’s, then RSS readers for Treo’s should only download snippets rather than downloading the entire article.

I prefer RSS feeds with partial text. I read a lot of feeds using Bloglines on my Treo 600. Some of the blogs I read are quite wordy and take forever to load on my mobile device. I prefer less text, if I want to read more, I'll mark the post and come back to it later when I'm using Bloglines on a desktop computer. I have to disagree with you here.
