Iphone 3GS's processor is by default as fast as n900's, but it doesn't overclock like n900's and the screen is still crappy.

Iphone 4's CPU is approximately as fast as overclocked n900 and it has little bit better screen.

So I would compare N900 to Iphone 4, if we are talking about hardware and speed.
This sounds right. Except, you can overclock the N900 to more than 800 Mhz, beating the Iphone 4. But remember, hardware doesnt only mean processor speed, what about all those amazing features such as FM Transmitter, FULL bluetooth (which the Iphone lacks), IR.. But good point
