I have a 5th Generation iPod Touch. It cost me 239 pounds.. It is a 32GB one. I 
have thought of getting an iPhone but apart from the expense I would be paying 
well over 300 pounds for the phone feature and then add on the 239 pounds for 
the iPod Touch feature, I think therefore the iPhone is extreamly expensive so 
feel I will l
keep my iPod Touch and my cheaper Nokia even with Talks is much cheaper

Hi Jackie
Thanks for all that.  I too had an I-pod touch as well as the I-phone but 
sold it as I decided I didn't really think it sensible to have a device for 
one thing and another device for something else.
thanks
