As several authorities have already said - you cannot compare the speed of the web-interface of SqueezeCenter to a native application like iPeng, SqueezeCommander or SlimControl. The apps are much faster and more intuitive than the browser interface.
Given that these apps cost a fraction of the hardware it all depends on what you are willing to spend on the hardware. And what you'll be doing with it besides controlling your SqueezeBox. If you fancy an iPhone - go get it and iPeng comes for like 2% extra money. Same for an Android phone & SqueezeCommander. If you merely want to control your SqueezeBox get a PDA for 30 bucks and SlimControl for another 15. If you want to be able to make phone calls with your 'controller' get a reasonably priced smartphone like a HTC + SlimControl. Just my 2c.
