What's your favorite Google Reader iPhone app?

I’m switching back to Google Reader from Fever. I still vastly prefer Fever’s UI, but I like the broad support for Google Reader with things like offline iPhone apps, and the social features are fun too. Being able to see what articles my friends like is pretty cool, and thanks to the open standards of RSS and OPML, making this switch is trivial.

Back when I used Google Reader regularly, I bought Byline for iPhone. It was a decent offline client back then, but I remember seeing a few competitors crop up. Got any you prefer? I’m specifically looking for a client that does offline/archiving, as I ride the bus and L train in Chicago and I can be out of signal range for a while.

So lay em on me. Links to product sites are preferred over iTunes, but I’m down for either. Thanks folks.

2. foolishsyntax answered: I’ve tried lots - Newsstand is far and away the best (fastest, most integrated). I’ve also tried NNW, Byline, Gazette, Readello, Feeds…
