what can the iPhone do that the iTouch cant, besides the phone of course?

once i get working again, i was thinking of a BB and an iTouch, would I be missing some out on som of the neat parts of the iPhone?

Barney Stinson uses an iPhone. Barney Stinson is awesome. So if you want to be awesome, use an iPhone like Barney.

Can't you guys get past the bickering? To the original poster, just do your own research, decide what will be best for YOU, and then go buy an iPhone.

Does the bb support skype? I picked up the skype app today for my iPhone and it's a massive addition. Suddenly my complaint about the iPhone sucking internationally shrinks a little.

As far as I know it does, it just doesn't support that many clients.

So I finally decided. I got the I-phone. iPhone, whatever
I am really technology illiterate. How long do you guys figure it'll take before I start listening to music and watching movies on it?

I used BBM for over a year. It was great and all, but do you honestly think the iPhone can't handle instant messaging?

It can handle it but BBM is something I miss now that I have an iPhone as well. Only because more of my friends have Blackberrys than iPhones. It would be nice if there was an app to use BBM on other phones.
