if you'd like to pay $70/month, then go with the phone, since it has a few more features like gps and 3G than an ipod or ipod touch. if you want the touchscreen of the iphone but not pay the monthly fee, go with a refurbished ipod touch 8Gb model, it is the same price as the 8GB nano. go with an ipod, there arent monthly fees.
 
Some people like using smaller iPods (especially Shuffles) for working out since accidents at the gym could damage whatever you are listening music on (sweat, bumps, drops, etc)

Shuffles works well for people who like a certain set of songs to work out with and don't need to have their entire song collection at the gym. Also, it clips to your clothes.
