Have you really touched and used the cited keyboard for iPhone to say that the N900's keyboard is worse ???

See your comment below. You've said "For those who cannot code, cannot root, cannot change a Launcher... I tell them to get an iPhone". IMHO, this recommendation is very superficial because depending on users needs and preferences, a Nokia Asha Series 40, Nokia Symbian, iPhone, etc, could
Because of those facts :
1) iPhone doesn't have a physical keyboard. Neither N9, Galaxy S3, etc;
2) iPhone doesn't come with a off-line maps software;
3) iPhone doesn't have the best camera, it is worse than Nokia 808, Nokia N8 and some other smartphones.
If you disagree, ask Apple to change the "http://www.apple.com/iphone/" site to include what you say, maybe Apple is wrong advertizing its beloved iPhone. And you can ask all Internet reviews to correct them because that they are wrong : iPhone camera is the best one.
You do have a valid point about the physical qwerty, but that seems to be necessary for the niche (like me).
iPhone does have offline maps. It requires purchase. But Google Maps and Apple Maps are actually not bad alternatives.

Got iphone 4 yesterday from At&T. Used it for couple of hours yesterday and I'm done. I knew I will get disappointed from iphone but didn't know I would get disappointed so much that I will go for HTC One X or Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket in few days. I don't even feel like using iphone at all! Its seriously crap for me!

Online maps are impossible to use in long roads where there is no celular (2G/3G) signal, situation very common in large countries.
