They all have a similar interface. I don't see any of them being hard or easier to learn. Rather than focusing on that, I suggest you focus on which would meet your needs best and is in a price range you're willing to pay.

The iPad is much larger, so you can read books on it and do some neat stuff, but it wont make phone calls and fit in your pocket. The iPhone can make phone calls and fit in your pocket but reading books and watching videos wont be as effective as an iPad. The iPod Touch is almost an iPhone without the ability to make phone calls and a constant data connection via AT&T.

If you don't want a monthly fee, then iPhone is out of the question for you.

I would get an iPod Touch if you want to try it out. Easy to get, set up, sell if needed.

Yeah, if they all have similar interface, I think I'd better start from Itouch, Itouch 4 seems quite valuable considering its price.
Frankly, I hate apple products at first, Jobs is nibbling the market of whole world, and we already
have windows so why Mac? but I suddenly realized that the whole world maybe have conquered by Microsolft, so I think we shall support a competitor of Windows

In the handheld device sector, Apple is the closest to having conquered the world. So in that particular arena, you're supporting the big dog.

It should be true in advanced country like America, but in developing country the situatiion should be different, ppl still choose products with lower price from Korea, Japan or Taiwan (e.g. HTC) or local made, although these handheld devices are not as delicate as apple's. the OP usually is Android or windows mobile. In China, some people even assemble cellphones by themselves using accessories brought from diverse or unknown providers lol that is cool~~~ right, the quality....doubtable of course.
But maybe, if you initiate a business like this in America, a country everybody like difference, maybe you could be the next Jobs :P

iPad 2. writing this on it right now hehe.

I was on the fence about whether to buy this or not then finally did / found one. Great device! Much more convenient to carry this around rather than lug a laptop to places.

Just know that the iPad is more of a companion device rather than a replacement device. Unless all you want to do is web/email.
