The page rendering on my N800 + Verizon EVDO is a lot faster than my iPhone on Edge. Both devices on wifi are pretty comparable, but I think the iPhone is slightly faster.
When I am at home, the N800 is my primary device to carry around the house for browsing. I rarely have to zoom in for pages unlike the iPhone. But when I leave the house, I bring my iPhone, because the size is so much better for carrying around in my pants pocket.
I'm with Tabletfan, around the house the N800 seems a little more robust in browsing, the iphone is really good, but I think I have just gotten addicted to the 800 pixel wide screen. However when mobile, the iphone browser is *much* better than the webkit browser on S60 phones, the rendering handles more complex web pages better. I carry a bag most places and use the N800 as more of a laptop replacement than a web browser so the iPhone would never replace it in that capacity.
IMHO the iphone still feels like I am on a mobile phone with a great browser for the web (maybe cos its a mobile phone) whereas the N800 feels like a mini-laptop (albeit a pretty slow mini laptop).

Thanks for making this clear. Actually that's what I was expecting.
any of you know what makes ajax choke up opera? i thought flash 9 would be more intensive than something like google docs, or even something like diggs commenting system. iphone safari can use simple ajax but not ajax found on diggs site.
