The iPhone 4 has Apple's venerable iOS, which is weeks - possibly even days - away from being updated to iOS 5. The Samsung Galaxy Note has Android 2.3 Gingerbread with Samsung's own TouchWiz user interface on top, and we wouldn't be entirely surprised if the Note gets ice cream sandwhich when that version of Android ships.

Both devices are equally pitched here, offering a choice of 16GB or 32GB of flash storage.
