However, the luddite side of me fears this all might be a gateway drug to Twittering.

My only question: Is the 32GB version worth the extra $100 over the 16GB version? I'm fairly frugal in my data storage, but spending an extra C-note to double the memory seems pretty reasonable.
The only reason to get 32 GB version is for video. Assume roughly 1 gig /movie. And of course, not every video needs to be preloaded into your phone, you can leave most of your library in your iTunes and just transfer when you want. I have a 16 GB and have never filled it up. I could, but am happy with the 16.

The apps and personal data only takes a tiny fraction - maybe 100 meg.
