I am typing this from my iPhone, and truthfully I find it to be a lot more pleasurable to browse on. Sorry N800.
Edit: just wanted to add this...
Its way easier to type on the iPhone especially with the widescreen keyboard in safari.
The scrolling and zooming is infintely smoother, and it handles most of the complex websites I throw at it with ease. I wish that the n800 handled sites as well, but it just isn't so.
I typically turn off flash support, since its usually advertisemts I don't care about.

Well, the big difference is that Apple in typical fashion is throwing a full compliment of resources at the problem of making Safari on the iPhone run well... somehow, Nokia is not doing the same thing with the N800. On the other hand we now have Skype on the N800...

Too bad the iPhone keyboard doesnt change from landscape to portrait keyboard with the orientation sensor. Real flaw there :P

Actually I do rarely need any zooming on my N800, since I fixed the minimum font size. Zooming is time consuming and clumsy.

hi, any other features safari has that opera doesnt?
how about in terms of rendering a web page on a n800 3g, vs safari edge? from trying the safari iphone in the store, it seems that iphone can render a page close to the speed of an n800 on 3g?

not really. n800 on 3g phone still takes time to render a full page due to processor. since the iphone is much faster, rendering a page on edge may be behind the n800 on 3g by not so much. there should be a youtube video comparing speeds.

There's also the fact that because the N800 is limited to DUN, which simulates a serial port (rather than PAN), the Bluetooth connection could be slower than the 3G connection.
anything else?
