Your first concern, I think, is to determine which carrier will give you the best coverage, because if the network is no good, then you have a brick in your pocket :(

Right now iPhone is only on AT&T so you need to find out if that is gonna work for you. In California (San Francisco , LA especially) the network is completely saturated, so that results in dropped calls, sluggish Internet .... I would start with the coverage first if I were you. Ask your friends what they use and if they're happy with their service.

the iphone is probably a bad idea until apple finally gets one on verizon. I mean when Steve Jobs has to tell everyone in a crowd to turn off their phones so he can demo the brand new one, yea, something stinks with the network.

Saying that, i love my ipod touch. Everything is so simple and easy. And I love itunes, it is the best music app i have found, and i've been looking for decades.

But man, those prices for the service on these phones is insane. And phone internet just can't compare to cable internet speeds.
