I want an iPhone....kinda

I want an iPhone... without the phone. The phone part I've got covered with the Treo 680 but I just can't look away from the very sleek interface that makes up the whole iPhone experience.

I currently have a Creative Zen Nano Plus. I get the Creative Zen Nano part, but have no idea what the Plus means. I keep thinking that it might be yet another one of those amazing marketing tricks that brilliant minds conceive in some room, where one guy stands up and says "No...not just "Creative Zen Nano", call it the "Creative Zen Nano Plus", as in 'It not only plays music....it plays music plus comes with headphones.' Yeah, that'll get them lined up at the store." Yeesh. Anyway, it has one gig of space and performs it's singular task very well, it plays audio. It serves it's sole purpose in life but severely lacks what I would like to have in an MP3 player.

Now to me, it would make sense to ditch the current line-up of iPods in favor of the new interface of the iPhone. Sounds easy doesn't it? Take out the phone and say "here's your new Video iPod. Enjoy!" I think it does too, even though I'm fairly certain it's not. However, it does seem like a logical next step for Apple and it's iPod line. If they do, I may have to finally cave and purchase an Apple product. What is the world coming to?

Just a thought.
