Whenever I click an RSS subscription link it just loads the XML page instead of asking me how I'd like to subscribe.

I use NewsRob and would like to continue to do so. Any thoughts for adding an RSS feed to google reader direct from the phone?

Thanks.
 
Thanks for the welcome, Wonsanim

I've found a paid app that will do this, but I'd rather have a way to do it manually for free.

Here's the app I found if anyone is curious (price listed on his site is incorrect...market has it for $1.99)

Any other thoughts?
 
You can... I just can't remember the name of the app. I used to use an app about a year ago to read my Google Reader feed. It did pretty much everything - marked stuff as read, got all my feeds from Google, etc. But, when I pressed a link in the browser the phone asked me what app to use to open it, and when you selected the app I'm talking about it went through the process of adding it to Google Reader.

If I remember the name of the app I'll come back here and post it. A quick search on the Market didn't ring any bells.
 
Thanks, Extorian.

I think I've found a possible solution, but it involved a couple of steps:
1) Find feed you want to follow
2) Click & hold to copy link to subscribe
3) Open google.com/reader from phone
4) Click the expand button
5) Manage/Search Subscriptions
6) Paste & it should be added...
