At first FeedWheel worked great. Two days ago I noticed that when
clicking on 'All Items' the program freezes. Restarting the App or
even the Playbook do not seem to rectify this. This started to happen
before the May 03/2011 Playbook update and the behaviour continues
after the update.

Thanks

Interesting. Have you tried reseting the database? From the home
screen:

1) Click the settings icon
2) Click on Reset Database
3) Press Delete
4) Restart Feed Wheel

This reset deletes Feed Wheel's cache. It doesn't make any changes to
your Google Reader account. Let me know if that helps. Thanks!

no dice, reset the database, still freezing when clicking on all
items.

I've seen some performance issues when synchronizing a large number of feeds. Basically it's going out to each server and downloading each feed. Google has a way to do this more efficiently, but I've only briefly looked into it. After this first bug fix release (version 1.2.3), I'll have more time to take a look.

There was one fix in v1.2.3 that might cause an error and freeze the UI. Once the release is posted would you mind trying it out again? It had to do with missing data in an article.

Version 1.2.3 should appear in the App World shortly. This is my first patch after the official release, so I'm not sure what RIM's timeline is like for updates. Stay tuned.

Thanks,
Jason

It seems that when the number of new feeds is larger (I haven't
determined the exact number but it seems >100) then I notice the
freezing...
