My first MAX app is hopefully going to be a Del.icio.us browser; it's in my noggin but no real code written yet. I did start with a super basic proof of concept to make sure I could pull down my own RSS feed:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<max id="delicious.rss" version="1.0"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
     xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.unyverse.com/developer/max.xsd">
  <title>Del.icio.us Feed</title>
  <page id="default">
    <query id="data" type="rss">http://www.unyverse.com/uws/rss?url=http://del.icio.us/rss/rivviepop</query>
    <title>Bookmarks {data.count}</title>
    <item>{data.title}</item>
  </page>
</max>
I just need to get the time to sit down and start with the real coding and see how far I can get. My idea is that you should be able to pull down only links with a tag (like "mtag" or "mobile" to be compatible with other existing services), and then be able to launch those links from your device with a click.

That's the plan, at least.

EDIT: I should note in the above code that I'm passing the del.icio.us stream through the Uny web service for RSS - the Uny author (Thierry) let me know that Atom and RDF (del.icio.us uses RDF) are not natively supported on the device, you have to filter them through his webservice as I've shown in order to transform them into basic RSS.
