The transformation:
A desktop ---- A laptop ---- An ipod touch ---- iPhone!
I dont use iPhone but I am very sure that an iPhone is just an exaggerate version of the iPod touch with the additional function to be used as a phone. And since it is a phone which gonna be connected to particular communication network, its another advantage is you could get direct connection to the internet, without waiting to be in the wiFi area.
As for the ipod touch, it doesnt come with the build in microphone which is stopping you to record you own voice of making a call. However, if you are clever enough, just get yourself an AUD50 iPhone's handsfree kit and a skype account with credit, a free wiFi area which gonna make your ipod touch to have the same function as the iPhone! Plus, skype is definitely the cheapest communication network provider and you could actually make a call to the other handphone or any landlines through skype.
As a student, I believe this is definitely the best way to save. Why?
1. You get free wifi connection at uni and your house; two main places where you spend most of your time.
2. For overseas student, making international calls to your parents would cost you an amount of money. Using skype, you could actually save about 95% from your normal international phone calls.
3. Free call to your other friends who is also using skype (skype to skype calls). I call my friend who is studying in London using skype for 6 hrs non-stopped and it did not cost me any penny.
So, just get yourself an ipod touch rather than an iPhone. An iPhone would cost you triple the amount you have to pay for the ipod touch. By just adding another AUD50 for the hand's free kit, you could actually add the function as a phone to your ipod. You can save a lot! Besides, I am very sure that each and everyone of us has a good handphone already, so why bother to get another one?
Trendy? Yup but I guess it is more trendy if someone saw you playing the game in the iPod touch while answering the phone call from your best friend. Something to consider here, an iPhone doesnt do multitasking task ;P
Finally, it is definitely a very tiny notebook!
