I'm going to get one of the three phones, but I'm not sure which one. The following things are the most important for me.
1. Texting- I text ALL the time. It's okay if the touch screen isn't amazing, but I don't want it to be extremely difficult.
2. Internet- I want a fast internet that works well. I MUST be able to access yahoo and facebook.
3. Music- It doesn't have to be great quality, I just want a few of my favorite songs on it.
4. Camera- As with the other things, it doesn't have to be THE best, but it has to take decent pictures.
I'd also like it to be a good phone for talking, obviously. I don't really care about television or anything....
Oh, and you can't get insurance for the iPhone, which is a major downside...

Re: IPhone? Lg Vu? or AT&T Tilt?
I can tell you from my experience in customer service that the Tilt got the least amount of negative feedback out of those three, at least from my standpoint. It is awesome for texting because it has a full keyboard, it has access to wi-fi so you can utilize that for fast internet and it has the 3G capabilities if you live in a 3G area. The camera is a 2.0 mp I believe, someone correct me if I am wrong, and it runs the Windows Mobile 6.0 which actually has an update now I think..possibly but you don't need it, but you do have your Windows Media Player for music. I have hands on experience with the AT&T 8525, the model right before the Tilt and I loved it. I also have a friend who recently bought a Tilt and he absolutely loves it. It's all a matter of taste though. The Vu and the iPhone both are touch screen only so I don't imagine texting would be too easy on either of those and when comparing features, the Vu is a regular ol' cell phone, not a PDA, it's just pricey because it's a flashy touch screen. iPhone has lots of cool stuff but I did hear complaints about the service not being as good as other phone, i.e. they had lots of dropped calls and areas where they didn't get a signal where another AT&T phone would. Just some info to think about when making a choice like this.

I agree with alana0j, the Tilt seems to be the best fit here. Especially for texting. It sports a slide out QWERTY keyboard that is much more solid than than the Vu. As far as Iphone, if you don't do much web surfing, there are much better options.

Re: IPhone? Lg Vu? or AT&T Tilt?
I have tried out the Iphone and ATT Tilt. I got the ATT Tilt, because it seems to be that your main focus with your phone is staying in contact, texting, Instand Messaging, Email, Facebook, etc., and calling, there isnt much need for it to be very high tech. The tilt is a great phone to get but after 6 months some of my buttons r starting to not work so well such as the A and M buttons. Not exactly sure why but could be new material in the phone not being tested enough.
Hopefully this helps, sorry for the slight bias

Re: IPhone? Lg Vu? or AT&T Tilt?
i think the iphone but it is really expensive
but if you want to text this phone is for you, also
there are apps for you like the facebok app for the iphone.
myspace app, maps, calculator etc blah blah (i have an iphone)
i really think they are good but make sure to get a screen protector or the screen may crack easily

Don't use the Facebook app for Windows Mobile though. I personally hate it. I have a Tilt, and I just use the web logon for Facebook and sure. I think its better. But if you're a texter, stick with the Tilt. Personally, I just feel more comfortable with a physical keyboard.

Re: IPhone? Lg Vu? or AT&T Tilt?
I too would go with the Iphone. I have fat thumbs and do not have any problems testing at all.
Connecting to the Internet is a breeze, the facebook app is awesome, and for being a 3mp camera it takes really good pics.
I can honestly tell you that my wife loves using my iPhone 3gs for facebook, she says it's better than using a home computer. Also my mother and father in law always compliment the clearity of my pictures on the phone.
Also the iPhone has apps for both yahoo and facebook.

For me, it's a coin toss between the iPhone and the Vu

Re: IPhone? Lg Vu? or AT&T Tilt?
what ever you do do NOT get the VU. Very poor call sound quality. Also when dialing the phone will automatically go into voice mail. no service support person has been able to fix this problem. I am considering leaving ATT$T because of this. They have very poor service and do not seem to care about my business at all. all I want is a phone that works as it is supposed to. do not buy a VU
