See http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=809181 for a discussion about other HN on the iPhone solutions.

My version is at http://mobilehackernews.appspot.com/

It uses iUI for the list and if you click on a story link it uses arc90's Readability to make the site you visit easier to read. The Readability script also puts a button in the top left corner of the page to revert to the original version.

That actually seemed awesome until i started getting this on pretty much every page:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/base/python_lib/versions/1/google/appengine/ext/webapp/__init__.py", line 507, in __call__
    handler.get(*groups)

  File "/base/data/home/apps/mobilehackernews /1.336829969607358575/main.py", line 137, in get
    html.head.append(cssCode)

 AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'append'

Odd, I saw that few times just now. But I can't reproduce it. The error suggests that when BeautifulSoup parsed to the contents of the posted article, it found a page with no head node in the HTML.
