To sell the diePhone?
So everyman and his dog has an iPhone these days....
Im slighty worried about a few things, on holiday i listen to alot of music but im kinda scared of using the iPhone on the beach and around the pool etc. With an iPod you can be pretty brutal with them not worry as much etc.
Do i sell the iPhone and buy an 80gb iPod Classic and a nice little phone?
Cant make my mind up

yep, they are coming far to common! The whole point was they were 'exclusive'
Theres some really nice phones out there at the moment. Check out the samsung g800. Ive got it, really cool phone.

Just make sure you can still surf the web on the phone?

Dont really need the internet on the move. Im either at work with a PC or when at home with a Laptop.
Only thing i use the data call for on my iPhone is to check facebook when out and about and to sycn my mails. Both of which i can do without.
I also like the fact i can sync my full music libary with my iPod and wack a shit load of TV shows on it.

There is no point in selling your iPhone you are only going to lose money.

Me personally Id love a phone where you can get on the net for nought. Alex has an iPhone.
Was well impressed but its a bit to big n flash for me.

lol 80 gig of music is like 2 years listning or something. Just plan ahead, fill the iPhone with the tunes you wanna hear when your away, ditch unecesary apps / photos / movies etc.
Man up. Dont ever say DiePhone again!
EDIT: OK i realise now my first line ther is nothing to do with why your wanting an iPod, the last line still stands though. Get a clear rubber case or something for it!

You can take it out when you want man, just nip into CPW.
I've had 3 phones back from insurance, it's pretty good to be fair. If it breaks or you break it/loose it you get a new phone the same day lol
