I own a 2nd generation iPod Touch and have been debating whether I should upgrade to a new iPod Touch, an iPhone, an Android phone, or just stick with my pay-as-you-go phone and older generation iPod.

What am I missing out on by not being able to use a standard micro usb cord? What does this prevent me from doing? I do understand that doing something like loading pictures from my digital camera requires me to first load the pictures to my computer and then transfer them to my iPod... is there anything else?

Is there something inherently wrong/inferior/crappy about using iTunes? Beyond personal preference, is there a particular reason I might want to avoid using iTunes to manage my digital library content?

Are there any specific customization options that Apple products lack and that you feel are "deal breakers"? Are there any specific customization options that the average, non-techy, just-wants-it-to-work-without-much-fuss user should consider to be "deal breakers"?

What's an HDMI and why should I want one?

What are the repercussions of being non DLNA compatible beyond the Apple "ecosystem?
