Well Cait, when it comes down to sharing, I'd go for the iPod because as much 
as I love my wife, I sure as hell won't share my toys with her. :) Yep, when I 
got the iPhone, she had to have one as well or I would never have heard the end 
of it. Now I said I was considering an iPad and so, she is considering one as 
well. Maybe the real problem is not sharing, but finding the time to share. :)
Good luck with whatever device you choose.
Scott
