Chuck,
My bad. Just assumed.
As for the tech issue, what you say about tech availability today is true, but what about 10 years from now? Sooner than that the only type of cell phone you'll be able to purchase will be a smartphone. Compare the number of cellphones and computers in use now to 10 years ago. I say, get ahead of the trend and be there when the computers and smartphones are in more hands.
On iPhone battery life, I have the original 2G version and rarely use it for the phone. Talk time last month was 15 minutes. I use it much more for email, web browsing, PDA, and podcast, streaming radio and mp3 listening. It will last me about a day and a half without a charge, but I drop it in the charger each night and it also charges while in the dock in the car.
