Digg for Android is here!

Looks like the team behind Digg are no longer going to be called “lazy idiots” with the official arrival of the Digg app for Android. It allows you to log into Digg Reader; go through Digg’s Top Stories; and Digg, save, and share any story. However, you can’t comment on stories.

A few missing features—such as “Show Only Unread Items;” view, text size, and display mode options; and background updating—are said to be making its appearance soon.
