I don't think there are any USENET clients for mobile.

I am using a modded version of the PiaoHong newsreader someone on the
Italian usenet has put online. It fixes some of the bugs the original
has and makes it actually useful as a reader.
It's not my favorite way of accessing stuff, but it works when on the road.

There was a thread about it on news.readers a few months ago.

There used to be one called Groundhog news a few years ago, but that
one is no longer updated.
Of course those are all for Android. I think there's at least one current
IPhone reader, but I don't know much about it.
