Once upon a time, Google had an iPhone optimized version iGoogle. Then they took it away. Now, it Android Central tells us it's returned. Confusing saga, good update:

Today, we're excited to roll out an improved beta version of iGoogle for the iPhone and Android-powered devices. This new version is faster and easier to use. It supports tabs as well as more of your favorite gadgets, including those built by third-party developers. Note that not all gadgets — like those with Flash — will work in mobile browsers.

Are you an iGoogle user? If not, is this enough to interest you? Either way, if you check it out, let us know what you think!
