    Only you can answer this question but if you can stomp up the cash go for it.

    Better off looking at it than for it ! :)

    put all your music into iTunes now, and see what the space it uses up. if its over 16GB then get the 32GB version.
    also allow some space for future downloads/songs and or removing some older songs, me personally i like having everything on my ipod, even the stuff i listen to once a year :)

    when I get my iphone I am going for the 3gs 16gb, I really don't see myself using anywhere near 16gb in the first place...personal choice really.

    the extra 16GB will be very handy if you plan on putting movies or tv shows on it for travelling, you are looking at 1GB per hour of video at reasonable quality.

    With music you don't have to put everything on to the phone. Make a playlist and jsut add the songs you want. Anybody that says they need access to more than 3-4g's of music at one time need their head examined!

    Even so, I'd personally go 32gb just for putting a couple of movies on and whatever apps you might use. You could definitely get by with a 16gb version though.

    If you keep playlists organised 16gb
    If you just throw everything you have in Itunes on 32gb:D
