The iPhone / touch are definitely nice multimedia devices, and while I respect your opinion, I disagree. After using both the touch (iPhone does not meet my smartphone needs), and Archos 605 / Archos 5 extensively, IMO the Achos devices are far better multimedia devices. The Archos devices have bigger screens, higher resolution screens, play more codecs natively, stream from NAS/web effortlessly, support 720 x 480, and most importantly, record directly to the device. After using the Archos 5 for any length of time, the touch's screen seems puny.
I am not a gamer, but after watching many playing PSP's etc on the bus, it seems the lack of physical buttons would detract from the gaming experience?
