It’s just a beta for now, but if you use Google Reader on an iPhone or iPod Touch, you might want to hit up http://www.google.com/reader/i. Actually, the Official Google Reader blog says this is for the iPhone and other advanced mobile browsers, so S60 and Windows Mobile folks might want to have a look-see as well.I use Google Reader on my iPhone daily and so far, I’m not thrilled with the beta. I find some actions taking more taps, so my hope is that there’s some additional tweaking before a full release. To be honest, I’m pretty happy with how the current version works, so I say: “why mess with a good thing”? Have a look for yourself and see what you think.

I think it’s an improvement over the current format. One more click is slightly painful over EDGE, but I think the look and two way navigation more than make up for it.
