Two questions for those iPhone users

1) For those of you already using 3rd party apps, how much space do they take up? I am wondering if a 16GB iPhone is really necessary.

2) Do you use the iPhone as an iPod? I am curious how quickly this drains the battery? I have a smartphone and right now I do a lot of email and web browsing on it and I was wondering if I start using it for Podcasts or music or whatever, how much worse is battery life?

Many 3rd party apps are under 200KB/ea. The largest install I've seen is about 6MB, and its the BSD Subsystem.

You'll be using the space for music and movies. Apps are not really a concern.
