We already know that the iPhone is turning into quite the gaming platform, with some big titles already in the works, but just how does it stack up to consoles in terms of raw power? According to Sega's president Simon Jeffrey, it's as powerful as the Sega Dreamcast.

Sure, the Dreamcast is around 9 years old, but for a phone to have that kind of power is still impressive. Jeffrey even goes on to mention that it makes sense to move some of the Dreamcast titles over to the iPhone. He declined to comment on a possible Sonic game for the device, but I really just can't imagine Sega passing up on bringing one of their biggest franchises to the iPhone.

There is a petition at http://www.iphonefeatures.org to get Apple to include basic features such as ‘copy and paste’ and more bluetooth profiles in the next iPhone software release. Please sign it!
