This was talked about on HN before, but some of the problems/solutions mentioned about not just mobile news, but online news in general:
1. S/N (signal to noise ratio) of news aggregators.
2. Monetization: Sponsored posts? (Techmeme) Intrusive ads?
3. Mobile first: Think readability.com
4. Opportunity discovery: News to startup founders was leveraging emerging trends before others became aware of them.
5. Personalized news: I think personalization is the reason why zerply.com, dreamforge.me, vastrm.com are doing well right now.
Self-plug: I'm trying to solve the mobile news problem with http://dinopost.com http://dinopost.com but I need help. Anyone interested in working with me and applying to a future YC class with this? (Open to pivots).
