Thanks Betty ... I agree with you about small size being important for road 
warrioring. And I think the small powerful ones have to weigh more ... because 
they have more guts...

I am interested to know the how's and why's of your going with an iPod Touch and a separate phone. How come you don't just combine the two and go with an iPhone?


I don't like the iPhone as a phone. I prefer Nokia for phones, and iPod Touch for other iTunes app features.

The N79 has a 5MP autofocus camera with dv stabilization, dual LED flash, Zeiss lens, and video, plus it has two cameras--one on the front and one on the back for video calls; iPhone has much less.

Both have GPS. N79 has built-in FM transmitter and FM radio. iPhone has neither.

Both have good battery life.

iPhone and iTouch have touch screens; N79 doesn't.

I can use the N79 very easily as a VOIP phone with several choices; iPhone is just 'learning' how to do this.

Nokia has more browser choices than iPhone. iPhone syncs better.

iTouch has a bigger display and is amazingly crisp for watching videos.

N79 has microSD card slot; iPhone doesn't. iPhone has more memory--a lot, but you can't add any more.

I already have home and car chargers for both.

I also prefer to separate some functions in two devices instead of one, especially the X6 won't be released until November and the N97 is too expensive. Besides, I like the Touch with its apps and music/video player. Mostly I have to get rid of my awful Sony Ericsson W580 and find something that doesn't have buttons that fall off and gets much better reception. N-series phones are known for their excellent reception, generally better than the iPhone.

Betty
