I own both an iPhone and an Android phone; I'm currently using the
Android phone (a G1), and I'll try to test the Android org-mode app
this weekend.

The iPhone MobileOrg app is okay.  It's good enough for quickly
pulling up org info and/or storing unfiled notes (in the vein of
remember.el) which you then file when you're back at your computer and
sync the changes.  It's *not* a fully-functional replacement for
org-mode on the go; editing existing entries is unwieldy, and agenda
views need to be pre-computed from Emacs before syncing.
