I'm also tracking a lot of blogs/streams etc. and trying to find a way to sift through them rapidly. Maybe I should enroll to a rapid reading class :) Vienna on the Mac’s, Thunderbird on the Linux and for everything else Google Reader.

Generally, I find both to be pretty good. Having them both in sync is of course awesome. The holy grail of the mobile experience. Biggest thing I'd like to see for mobile is offline mode - download the messages so I can read them disconnected, then sync back up when I'm online again. Wouldn't be perfect, but would be useful for trips. IBM-internal feeds I read with Mail.app. Very low traffic. Couldn't say how well it would work for a lot of traffic. I also still use NNTP for some mailing lists I follow from gmane (gmane is a blessing and a curse). For that, Thunderbird.
