Getting iPhone (used) instead of Touch32gb?

[Joe.S]

Well I am going to be receiving a iPod Touch 32gb soon brand new and I was thinking i'd rather the iPhone 8gb because of course of its other features.

So I looked on eBay and noticed a brand new iPod Touch 32gb would sell for £220+ and I could see iPhone 8gb (used good condition) for around £250-£280 which I wouldn't mind spending that little extra on it.

Would you say I go for it or keep the iPod Touch?

erm, if i would from the iphone experience get it because it has all you need, phone, gps, apps, internet whereever etc but its up to you

Get the iPhone tbh as it has more features. They're kind of similar but of course the iPhone has the ability to make calls and texts as it is a mobile. :P

[Joe.S]

Yeah I want it for the phone, texts and internet really. But I am a big twitter user and I want to have the ability to take pictures and put them on to twitter where ever I am aswell.

So you think I should go for it?

If it's the original, then try and get a 3G, if you can't get a 3G or 3GS, don't bother IMHO.

[Wayne]

I agree with that. ^ Get the 3GS one.

[Joe.S]

Yeah it will be iPhone 3G. So you think its better than the iPod Touch 32gb?

[efq]

Yeah get 3GS if you can't then get 3G. I didn't notice THAT much difference between them both so whatever you can afford.

well if u want it for that then defo i guess, is it possible to get it your way you described by selling on ebay then buying?

I think so, If I sell it brand new, boxed, wrapped etc then it should get good money then I can buy the iPhone.

[Joe.S]

erm then go for it if i were u
Lol thanks, I will. Anyone disagree?

[efq]

Lol thanks, I will. Anyone disagree?
people have different views on the forum so someone usually will

[Joe.S]

Anyone got any comments before I put it on eBay?

[efq]

If its new then make sure you take a pic of it in box and if possible sealed. Increases price trust me. Don't take it out to prove it works cause once its opened /pow money price drops.

[Joe.S]

I will do, going to put it on tomorrow and hopefully get over 200 for it.

goodluck mate, i think you can get over 200

[efq]

How did it go?

[Nxrissa]

ive got a 2g. and once updated. theres no difference between the 3g ive updated it about 3 times now and well its practically the same as my sisters which is a 3g just a different case. its up to you though.

[e5]

Go for the iphone over the ipod touch :)

[Joe.S]

I was thinking as it is £283 brand new from Apple UK. What do you think I can get for it on eBay? If I can swing £230-£260 plus my £50 I could get a brand new iPhone 8gb on eBay?

And the fact the 3G is exactly that... 3G

[efq]

um i aint sure on what it will sell for but if you paid £283 for it then expect something roughly near it i guess??
