What's the big deal? Add your feeds to a feed reader the way other people do.
That single point (of failure) had an advantage. You could use multiple devices and have the same state on each one (a read article appears as read everywhere).

IMHO. This is what I miss on my N900 and my computer.
A feed reader, multi platform, with synchronization of read articles and off-line capabilities. Being able to access my feeds when using somebody else's computer (ie. web access) is only a plus.

If someone has a solution. I take it immediately.
