    it would all depend on how much money you wish to spend.
    the iphone is not cheap and is a 2 year contract.

    playing games/music/video on an iphone is possible but as its a phone i wouldnt bother it will destroy the battery life :) mind u they did improve it in the latest firmware
    The orginal post in this thread has a very very slim chance of being about money saving. The post is more than likely to ask a question that google could answer better than any of us.

    Depends whether you want the phone or not, we can't tell you! THey are identical software wise as far as the end user is concerned, if you saw a game/music/ video being played on both you wouldnt be able to tell the difference. The Touch is by FAR the cheapest option. IMO, the iPhone is still too expensive, and has limited bluetooth, no picture messaging, restrictive App Store (Apple approved software only) etc...
