The iPhone is an iPod (audio and video). It's also a Mac "lite" (Safari, iCal, iChat, Mail, iSync, widgets). No Palm device can do what an iPhone does. There's no full word, excel, powerpoint support for this but I've tried working with "office" products with my PalmOS devices and I've *always* ended up looking for a lap/desk top.

The iPhone fits my needs and I call it "genius."
