I had the pleasure of playing with an iPhone recently, and I tried to determine the screen's resolution just by eyeballing it, unsuccessfully. I have a QVGA Nokia 6288, had another QVGA phone, had a VGA Dell Axim x50v, and a few other small devices with decent screens. The iPhone's screen is great not because of the resolution, but rather, because there is no 'screen door' effect. That means that white space is white, with no black grid surrounding the pixels as is typical in most LCD screens. When you cannot see the grid, you cannot determine resolution and that is why the iPhone screen looks as good as it does.
