    I have an apple ipod 30 gig video that I bought two years back. Apple of course came out with the new iphone and the nw ipod touch. I heard that you can hack the ipod to give it all the features that th iphone has other then you can't make a call.

    Question.... how come the ipods are so expensive considering my 30 gig cost me just a few hundred and the 16g ipod touch cost $399.00 that's crazy.

    Are you better off just purchasing the iphone ?

    Can you purchase the iphone without purchasing a cell plan. I don't need a cell phone right now ?

    I'm one of these people who doesn't like things being integrated. I don't like a camera on my phone, I have a proper camera to take pics with. I like my mp3 player to play mp3s, fair enough videos (have a 80gb ipod video).

    I'm sceptical about the Iphone, I want to try one out just to test a few things. Mainly I want to see if the screen reflects light too much so you can't see it on a sunny day, cause I had experience of using a touch phone like that before, wasn't a good design.

    I held one before at the store. Nice feeling and small. But I want to sell my ipod that I have now which is a 30gig video. It's in mint condition and still has the orgianal box, disk etc.. I'll use the cash to help get a new iphone I guess.
