Apple Adds More Storage To iPhone And iPod Touch: Getting Closer To That Sweet Spot

February 7th, 2008

When Apple moves from “getting closer” to “close” it means I’ll finally pony up for either an iPhone or an iPod Touch.

The storage space on the iPod Touch is very welcome. My current iPod is an iPod Video with 30 GB storage, so the 32 GB on the Touch is at last, equivalent. The battery is starting to fade on my iPod Video, and I realized during my video rental test that the older iPods won’t display the movie rentals. So most likely, this year I’ll do the inevitable upgrade to the latest iPod.

But if I’m going to get a Touch, I should consider the iPhone, and on that front, I think the rumored “2.0″ model will have more appeal than an iPod Touch. A 3G iPhone is nearly a given this year, and AT&T is building out its 3G network, meaning faster Internet access. I’m thinking this iPhone 2.0 will appear in the later half of the year, and (fingers crossed) - and a higher end model will be bumped to 32 GB.

So that’s my sweet spot: 3G iPhone 2.0 with 32 GB. With that amount of storage, it will completely replace my iPod.
