any n900 user jumping ship to iphone4? LOL

The closest to N900 is actually Milestone and now the Milestone 2 which is better, have similar form factor, keyboard, etc.
iPhone4 you will loose physical keyboard and loose lots of freedom, loose true multi-tasking, loose contacts integration, loose desktop, loose widgets, and many more; What you gain is smoothness, response, apps, games and finally, FAME/BRAND/ATTENTION.

Not sure how many N900 users willing to switch to iPhone4 since there're so many "real" smartphone out there and some which are more powerful, plus Android is gaining lots of popularity and apps/games development.
Then upcoming, there's MeeGo.

Finally, you can buy iPod Touch 4 at much cheaper price, you can save up to RM1.5K by getting iPod Touch 4, and then spend RM1.5K on many "real" smartphones.
If your intention is for the games, getting iPod Touch 4 shouldn't be a problem as you don't really have to carry it everywhere, it's just like having a PSP Touch (no physical buttons).
Of course, some people may think better to get all in one; well, yes, it depends on your $$$ and how you spend it. So, if one think it's worth paying extra RM1.5K just to get the Phone function, then just go for it, there's no wrong or right; just like some people willing to pay few thousand for a "brand", it's the person's choice.

For me, can't replace. It's feels like a gaming device for me instead, but I still prefer my PSP with real buttons. My ipod Touch 3G I just play for fun sometimes, I hardly touch it also... Sometimes when I try to on it, already out of battery, too long never touch.
Anyway, I get it since I need to buy a GPS and since I got bluetooth GPS receiver, might as well spend on iPod Touch, I can enjoy the games plus there's some app which I want on iOS.

For me, I can't imagine myself using iPhone4 even tough there smoothness and response is nice, but NO DESKTOP (nothing to see, see menu? see wallpaper? LoL), NO WIDGETS, NO CUSTOMIZATION (who iPhone?), No contacts integration, no physical keyboard (die, type SMS, worst if type email or type message in forum, can cry; I use iPod Touch, press until I fed up, I just want to type few words, can vomit blood and when type wrong, no arrow keys to go the place I want to edit, vomit blood again), no Flash, mobile version website,... wah lao, so many, I cannot imagine further...

Some of the app should be clashing with the fcamera.
My suggestion is start fresh with flashing your N900 & install minimal apps 1st.
