Well the thread creator did want to compare the two devices. Anyway you're right, two totally different devices that do not compete, in my opinion, at all. The iPhone is a phone, the IT is not. The iPod touch is a media player, the IT is not. This should be enough. The iPhone is for Mac users, the IT is for the rest of us. I am both a Mac user and non-Mac user. So, now, I don't know which one I should love EDIT: oh, texrat already prized you
