In apps the text will be the same size across all iPhones - the layout will just scale to the screen size.

On web sites I'd expect the same as it is controlled by the layout and style sheet, although mobile safari will sometimes 'help' by increasing the font size above that set in the stylesheet if it thinks it will be rendered unreadably small.

you and me both! Of course you can just stretch the screen with your fingers to increase the font size when reading it...
