I’m an AT&T customer, own a Palm Centro and an iMac desktop computer. I like the Palm, but the controls are small and not all my data syncs up through the pitiful Palm Desktop software. I am considering the iPhone because of the larger on-screen buttons, better sync features and the ability to play music, but I’ll use it mostly to–duh–make telephone calls, keep appointment and keep track of customer contact information. I don’t plan to spend all day on FaceBook or Twitter, probably won’t download any movies from iTunes or use the GPS.

-decent amount of pictures
-few scant videos
