    Hi

    I've got the original touch, which has the nicest form factor of any phone I've owned

    Having 3G on the Dual is great but loosing Wi-Fi that will be a deal breaker for many

    its got 3.5G thou! You can stream YouTube, anywhere you've got the 3.5G signal kills the iPhone youtube app imo.

    I'd go and buy one tommorow, but instead i'd rather have the Touch cruise with a keypad

    I was almost tempted to hold out for this when I bought my original touch - but glad I didn't and I made the right choice.

    It has half the battery life, its twice as thick, a fair bit heavier, a smaller screen, and no WiFi - the only benefits are the 3G and keypad..both of which I can live without.

    The main reason to go for one would be the keypad - BUT since the improved HTC 'phone pad' was released for the touch theres no real reason to, since that works brilliantly for text input anywhere on the phone
