iphone 4--should I get the 16g or 32g?

Any guidelines for what types of users will be satisfied with 16g v 32g? I am a moderate app user and don't use the iphone for music, but I will use it a lot for pictures and video.

Would be grateful if anyone can help me decide whether I should pony up for the 32g. Thanks.

If you're planning on using it for video/photo use, I'd suggest going with 32GB. It'd be better than getting 16GB, and regretting it later. Video can take up a bit of room on your phone.

Also, this would depend on how often you'd Sync and play around with your libraries. You can always move things off/on the iPhone in iTunes. I personally have a 16GB iPod touch, and it's not enough for videos/pictures. I have about 4GB of pictures and about 6GB of video. I'm almost 3/4 full already. I'll welcome the larger storage space that the iPhone 4 offers vs my iPod touch.

Just my 2 cents.

Video takes up a lot more space than most apps and music. Especially because this new camera takes 720p HiDef movies. I imagine the pictures will take up some major space as well. 3 DVD's is a little under 16 gigs...If you don't plan on keeping the video on your phone for long periods of time, then 16 gigs could work well for you. I have a 16 Gig 3G and have over 400 pics, a lot of apps, and the rest is all music. It's completely full. With no video. I'm upgrading to a 32g because I need more space especially for video taking and editing. I rather be safe than sorry.
