RSS Feeds Via Email

Does anybody care about receiving RSS feeds via email? Morbus and I were talking about this last month and I've hacked together enough perl script to grab the RSS and parse it, tranform it into HTML using XSLT, and send it via email with the proper HTML mime type. I'm now at a point where I need some feedback on whether the rest of the world is interested in such a beast. I'm particularly interested in discerning the number of amphetadesk or non-amphetadesk users who are interested in receiving RSS feeds via email. Take the poll. One design that I'm considering would allow you to provide your own XSL skin such that the transform that you received in your email would be exactly what you asked for, or you could use the default.
