I still dont think that the touch iPods are worth the money based on the price vs. space.
The 16 gig iPhone came out today too.

My 30GB Zune cost $130.00 I am happy as shit with it.
Here's a novel idea... It plays MUSIC!!! Thats what i got it for.
It's like my fiance says....
"Would I want a $300.00 purse? Fuck no! I would rather have a $10.00 purse with $290.00 in it."

I agree with the purse analogy, but I do love my 'iPod' tm

well I have an ipod for music, and the touch for videos for airplane rides. Nothing better for distracting me from the tiny seat and the fat black
bitch next to me for 4 hours.

if you go the Blackberry route let me know. I always have at least 4 or 5 of those. Maybe we can do a trade.

I buy em and resell em. Despite my associations, I am not a criminal.
By "any good", do you mean are they useful for what you're trying to do? Or do you mean do the ones I have work?

steve, i'm planning on getting an iphone for exactly that reason.
my shop is completely mac based and with the iphone, i can handle any of my client's immediate needs from the road (website content updates, server or
email issues, etc. the only thing i couldn't do is graphics works.) sure, there are other smart phones i can do this with, but they're either palm
or windows mobile based and don't play as nicely with the macs.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

dude I wasn't saying anything bad about you. I didn't mean for that to sound dickish...
I know you wouldn't sell junk, I bought that heat press from you that still works, I just meant would they serve my needs..
answering emails being able to veiw full site, and maybe do a little spreadsheet work...
I know I couldn't do my graphics on it, but not being able to keep up with customers can be a bitch

I know this may come as a shock, but I am still pc based...
so I need pal or windows based...
I saw someone with an i-phone the other day and it looked neat, but I don't need another cell phone, I need mobile email and such...
so I thought the i-touch might be cool

i think i knew that about your shop being pc-based. blows my mind 
but yeah, the itouch has all the same functionality w/o the phone. and because the syncing occurs through itunes (which, as you know, is available
for the pc), the iphone and touch are far more compatible with pcs than winmo phones are with macs.
that said, if you need to edit MS office docs (word, xls) you're outta luck with the iphone and touch. they can view, but not edit. (yet, anyway!)
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

oh I know bro. I didn't take any offense. The criminal comment was sarcastic.
Anyway, with a Blackberry you can get your email instantly, view but not edit Excel spreadsheets (not yet anyway, you can with an add on program that
costs $$), and the free mini Opera browser you can view full websites. The only 2 carriers with high speed 3G Blackberrys are Verizon and Sprint.
AT&T will have them this year.
Windows Mobile has a lot of benefits like Mobile MS Office and a lot of cool multimedia programs. I just don't like it at all.
iPhone is a pain in the balls to type on. Deleting emails is annoying. But the web browser is superb. The data speed isn't though unless you're
connected to Wifi.
Also, Nokia makes some smartphones that get rave reviews but I've never used one so I can't recommend it.

I have the iPhone and couldn't live without it now. The touch is only good if you are near WiFi. The edge networks is slow, but for e-mail and youtube
it is pretty damn cool.

steve, are you familiar with google docs? http://docs.google.com it's free web-based word processing and spreadsheet editing.
you can upload your current xls quoting templates, then edit, save and email copies as needed through whatever browser you like. (including safari on
the iphone/touch.)
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

I love mine too! I got this bad ass case for it on OtterBox.com thats super protective. They actually have one model up from what I got and that case
is waterproof!
I just wish that you could watch other videos (besides YouTube) from websites on it.

when they release Flash Lite 3 for the mobile Safari browser you'll be able to do that. Nokia's high end phone, the N95, does that now.
