Our family might be adopting an iPad sometime soon, and if so I might end up reading my RSS feeds much more enjoyably on that device.

Nonetheless, I still yearn for a Firefox compatible RSS reader as enjoyable to use as the no-longer-supported Brief.

I do like the fact that with Google Reader you can see your unread feeds on any computer without tedious syncing (xmarks and firefox sync never worked that well for me). I just would like a more attractive GUI.

Is what I'm looking for a Google Reader-compatible front-end app (as someone mentioned above)? If so, can someone recommend one for a desktop PC and Firefox? And one for an iPad?
