    Umm, you click on it, when it opens you use the menu button to add feeds, and you're away. What's the problem?

    I've just tried adding an RSS feed (BBC News) and had no problems. Have you tried adding a few others to see whether it's a specific problem with the one you want?

    I'm not at all sure what news page you can be looking at. I'm looking at http://news.bbc.co.uk and there is no clock there; near the top right (but under the banner) there is a standard orange RSS logo. Can you see that?
