so my reason for wanting an iPhone was to ability to see internet pages and pretty much browse like i would on a PC, but iTouch comes with WiFi so it can also be used to get on the internet, but im not sure if the offer iTouch with a $20 internet fee to be able to go online anytime you please??

so with internet on both you can watch youtube vids and also movies can be uploaded on both with same screen size and quality. Does iTouch have weather, and traffic report?, google maps? or can someone else tell me what iPhone has that iTouch doesnt, im sure that will help me decide.

The way i see it, iTouch comes with 16GB and thinner and iPhone is basically same thing but with ability to make phone calls and send TXT, but i can make phone calls on my blackberry and TXT, while having iTouch for internet, traffic, weather, google map, watching movies and videos.

Am i missing something?

thank you much!

Well, first how music-dependent are you? The iPhone is only 8 gigs, versus the Itouch at 16 gigs. So if its music you need, and lots of it go with the touch and keep your blackberry. However, I don't see the purpose of carrying around two devices when the iPhone was designed to cater to the needs of both Ipod users and smart phone users. Its essentially everything in ONE GREAT DEVICE. Yes, it will not have as much space for songs but 8 gigs is still a lot of room for a days use.

Now if 8 gigs still doesn't grab your attention, theres a very good possibility that the iPhone V2 coming out this year will be 16 gig or maybe 32 gig model. Steve will probably give more on that topic at macworld on the 15.
