Nextgen Reader for Windows and Windows Phone – Both for $2.49

Last month I reviewed the great Readly/RSS reader NextGen Reader which is my personal favorite reader available for both Windows and Windows Phone.  You can read that review here and in that review I point out that the app is a Universal app.  That means if you buy it for Windows or for Windows Phone, you get the counterpart as part of the license.  Normally this is $2.99 but this weekend you can pick up Nextgen Reader for both Windows and Windows Phone for only $2.49.   Do yourself a favor and get this great app if you read a lot of RSS news and have a Feedly account.
