Many government facilities do not allow cameras inside - and finding a device without a camera is hard to do these days. Many parents would probably prefer that their children's phones were camera-less as well - but unfortunately the pickings are slim. Brian ~

But I thought I'd point out that the first "shortcoming" that you list is actually a pro for a lot of people like me. A lot of military facilities, as well as a number of private companies with proprietary information, do not allow cameras on site. As a result, I've been tied to a Palm TX PDA for years. I'm also limited to the cheapest models of cell phones, unless I wanted to switch to a Blackberry, and I just hate Blackberries. So not having a camera makes the iPod Touch nearly perfect for me, since I now know that you can directly input to the calendar and address book.

The iPod Touch is a good alternative because you get the same interface and no monthly fees but of course, you give up the always available internet connection and the phone capabilities.

In Canada we can't get the iPhone yet, but those might be nearly as good. That sounds pretty useful after all. I already have an ipod, so I didn’t see any point in the touch.
