Here's news of two big apps that have gone free (with ads) in the past week.

iPhone app Feeds handily synchronizes with Google Reader

by Jason Clarke (Feb 2nd, 2009)

But as good as the mobile interface is, for me well done native applications will always beat an in-browser experience. A good iPhone app that synchronizes with Google Reader already ...

Byline: Google Reader for your pocket

by Robert Palmer (Jul 16th, 2008)

As someone who manages whole metric scads of information in Google Reader, I was excited to see Byline, from Phantom Fish software, in the App Store.
