I had the same hesitation. At one point I was about to dig through the HTML to figure out where it was sending my login information but gave up. I'm happy with the way the mobile version of Reader works for me. Unless they'd have screenshots of their version I might try it in their favor.
It's owned and operated by the guy who sits down the hall from me, John Tokash (<a class="user" href="http://blog.tokash.org/).">http://blog.tokash.org/).</a>FWIW, I can assure you that he isn't harvesting passwords. If he is, I'll shoot him with a nerf gun personallyFrom the FAQ: "Your Google password is not stored on the server when you use ReaderMini. Hopefully, Google will soon make their AuthForWebApps service available for the Google Reader API soon. When that happens, ReaderMini will no longer ask for your credentials. Until then, please use a new account or the demo account if you are uncomfortable." (AuthForWebApps lets you log in at google.com and gives you a cookie... however, that cookie crediential is not yet supported by the Google Reader API.)Reader Mini was originally designed for use on the Nokia N800 (which is a Linux micro-tablet running Opera). Google reader's full interface does not work correctly on the N800, and the mobile interface is too limited in functionality. ReaderMini was created to solve these problems.John loves getting feedback, so try it out!
The official mobile Google Reader is severely limited in functionality, and the normal Reader does not work correctly on mobile devices such as the Nokia N800 (mini linux tablet that runs Opera). ReaderMini was created to bridge the gap. It gives you access to all the Reader functions, but with a stripped-down interface.See John Tokash's blog (<a class="user" href="http://blog.tokash.org/)">http://blog.tokash.org/)</a> for details.
When I saw the headline, I thought that the "official" google reader mobile is what they were talking about. Thanks for putting the link up, people shouldn't be giving their google logins to a non-google owned site.-Kap
It is amazing how butterfly effects works.Small corrections here and there can give the most propective career to your child.This can be only done through a teacher so be the one who makes the changes and become the flag man to someone's life.<a class="user" href="http://test-help.org/rica.htm">http://test-help.org/rica.htm</a>

Also, don't use your real Gmail account, unless you want somebody sniffing around and seeing whose cookies you are after.

AceTracer: LifeHacker had good luck with Opera, but apparently it doesn't work at all on pocket IE. <a class="user" href="http://www.lifehacker.com/software/google-reader/browse-google-reader-onthego-with-reader-mini-229655.php">http://www.lifehacker.com/software/google-reader/browse-google-reader-onthego-with-reader-mini-229655.php</a>
