Will Touch kill iPhone sales?

I'd think ATT is pissed about the iPod Touch as it would hurt iPod sales and moreover, bring fewer users to ATT from other carriers. Now users of other carriers just get the Touch and stick with their carrier.

That said, I wouldn't get the Touch as that's a lot to pay for not having an SD slot. 16GB SDHC cards are coming soon and 32GB will come sooner than you think.

I'll stick with my Treo phone, which has EVDO, replaceable battery, SDHC slot, bluetooth and plays most any video/audio codec.

You are not the only one that thinks the iPod Touch will hurt iPhone sales. These ZDNet columnists thinks so too.

Apple’s iPod Touch will cannibalize the iPhone. My hunch is that most folks that bought the iPhone keep the phone part as an afterthought. Take a Wi-Fi enabled iPod, toss in a browser and the differences between the iPod and iPhone stop at the phone.

What’s really notable about the iPod Touch is that it totally reverses conventional thinking. When the iPhone launched the idea was that the iPhone would cannibalize iPod sales. As this plays out it’s going to be quite the opposite.
