"Readability" application for iPad

Readability (http://www.readability.com) is a wonderful app (remember, I'm new to the iPad).

What is allows you to do is surf the web and identify interesting articles.  Of course, you can simply read them, or you can use readability to mark them for future reading.  What Readability does is to re-format the article for reading, but keep the reference source URL, so you can jump back to the site, should any content not be carried forward.

Readability then syncs with your iPad, so you can access a targeted reading list at your convenience.  It also allows you to maintain an archive of articles (a boon to researchers or students - you can store articles to read while continuing a search - reference source maintained).
