Okay, I confess to feeling intrigued by this Apple mania.  I'm not willing
to change phone carriers to experience mobile devices, so unless I buy an
unlocked phone after Verizon picks it up, I'm thinking of picking up an iPod
Touch.  A few questions for you loyal Apple fanatics:

1. Is my assumption correct that if Verizon picks up the iPhone as it is
expected, I could buy an unlocked iPhone and use it on Sprint given they're
both on a CDMA network?

2. I know bigger is always better, but on average, how many gigs are you
using to handle your main apps?  Can you expand memory through micro SD for
music and such?

3. How well has the iPod Touch worked as a business device?  Can e-mail be
easily synched for exchange accounts?  Is there a sufficient number of
business-oriented apps that work on the iPod?  Are most apps built for the
iPhone available for use in the iPod where possible?

4. Is there a dummy guide for people like me who'd need a crash course on
touch typing, gestures and such?

5. Has anyone heard anything suggesting future GPS inclusion in the iPod?

and finally,

6. How well does the FaceTime app work?  Or, how well has the Google Voice
app worked to communicate with people using 3G or wi-fi networks?

Thanks in advance for entertaining my million questions!

Joe
