An unlocked 3GS is still going to cost you around $250... If you don't plan on activating it, how different is it from your existing iPod Touch? 

A new iPod Touch is only $199.

My Touch doesn't have a camera so, I think it's 1st or 2nd gen.  I found a 3gs on Telus for $150, doesn't mean I have to have a plan, right?  I thought about grabbing a new Touch but they're going for $299 here.

not sure what you see in the Canadian version of the Apple store, but a refurbished 4th Gen touch is $209 here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/FC544LL/A/refurbished-ipod-touch-32gb-black

Thanks guys for all the input, I'm gonna weigh the pros and cons of the iphone and touch and make a decision tonight.

Did someone from MS infiltrate Apple?

Maps was very buggy on my recent trip to Cali. Sometimes it worked- more than once it didn't update properly going from one place to another, Siri stopped giving me turn by turn directions. A few times it couldn't find the location I typed in. It also sent me to the wrong place (I knew it was wrong by looking at the map- I didn't waste my time getting lost)

App update is having problems, too. It has been freezing in the middle of re-installs. I went to the Mac forum. The simplest, least invasive answer was shutting off wifi and turning it back on. I had to do this a few times, it would update one or two apps, then freeze again, but it eventually worked.

For those of you who don't have Siri(like me), Google just did a major update to their search app. including a much better voice search option!

Siri has basically not been working for me at all recently, anyone else?
Is this still Wombat?

These are pigeons, indoors, underground, in the subway.

How did they get there?

Were they trying to avoid the bad weather?

How did they know which train to take?

Pigeons are rats with feathers. They belong in the subways.

Obvious post is obvious.
