Hi Chris,
bw.Write(bytes) keeps increasing memory usage, even when setting AllowWriteStreamBuffering=false. So still limited to some file sizes depending on available memory. Ie, you cannot upload a 5mb file if available memory for the app is 5mb or less. It gets even worse when you try to upload from inside a Scheduled Task where memory cap is 5mb...
I have also tried with HttpWebRequest, its so frustrating...

Hi Chris - Outstanding! - Thank you it works great.I'd like to extend a bit, need your thoughts. I would like to let Users customize the experience a bit - choose from pre-loaded list of feeds, add their own feeds, change order, etc. almost like the Pulse wp7 app... Appreciate any pointers & Thanks again!

Chris, The RSS Starter looked real interesting (and is). However, it's looking for System.ServiceModel.Syndication
on my system. Where does Syndication for WP7 come from??
