Hankering to access Google Buzz on your iPhone outside of Mobile Safari? Pardon us, but there's an app for that. The Next Web reports that Buzzie [iTunes link] is now in the App Store for $1.99.

Buzzie gives a view into ongoing Buzz conversations nearby even when you're not logged in, and once authenticated, users have access to standard Buzz features like starting and participating in conversations. You can mark messages as public or private and decide whether or not to include location information in a Buzz.

The third-party Buzz client is arguably a slicker rendition than the standard web app version, but will users be willing to shell out $2 for the extra polish? Developer Alberto Hierro certainly hopes so. That cost is also a special introductory deal, so if you're thinking of picking up Buzzie, be aware, the price will jump up to $2.99 after the launch week.
