Thanks. Layouts I can deal with; my mom isn't exactly tech svy, so if I can just hand her a 4 that works exactly like her 5, with all apps and logins and data, that's all I was hoping for. I just wasn't sure about restoring between the two devices, since people on here told me that restoring between an iPod Touch and iPhone wasn't a good idea. Thanks again for your help.
