Are you getting a Mac or an iP(ad,od,hone)?
As a die hard Linux and PC user I've been using an iPhone for about a year and I like it. As far as I know if you're getting an 'i' device you're stuck with Safari though and its far from the best but not the worst. For a browser on a mobile device I'm satisfied.
You can use any mainstream browser on Mac. You aren't stuck with Safari if you don't like it. The price turns me off from buying them but its very simple and for the most part it just works.
One thing I can say is that if you own multiple apple products already...like an ipod or an iphone and are looking for a new home machine, a Mac will play nice with all your other Apple products in cool ways that it can't with a Windows PC. IMHO Windows 7 is decent and Windows PC's are starting to be able to play nice with other Microsoft products similarly to the way Apple stuff does, but its not as good yet.
linux is free!
