[QUOTE="zacster, post: 1337584, member: 17931"] My daughter wants an iPhone, but I'm not willing to pay the data plan, mostly because she has a brother and sister that would also then want one, so it would be 3 data plans. (As we keep telling all 3 kids, you can have x, or you can go to college! :)) Anyway, now she says she wants an iPod touch, since she'll then have the games and video, and music of course, and I could sign her up for our free wifi coverage provided by the cable company, so even out on the street she'll sometimes be able to get a signal. (spotty at best) Are these worth it? Just reading the spec I can see that it isn't just an iPhone without the phone, but more like last gen iPhones with a less powerful processor. And how is battery life? I had a 1st Gen touch and it was useless in that regard. If I left wifi on I'd get maybe an hour. [/QUOTE]
