Don't just do it because everyone else did. I recommend you examine all phones, and pick the best for you. If that's iPhone, then fine. But I am just trying to advise that when you open your mind, there are many better options out there.
Oh trust me, I'm very open minded in general. I've NEVER been one to do what's trendy/popular/etc. I very much march to the beat of my own drum as they say. I plan on shopping around, however I DO need a new ipod, as well as a new phone. So I'm probably going to kill 2 birds with that one.
