Is iPhone 1.5 Enough a Reason to Switch?

I've been looking for a good reason to switch to an iPhone and was pretty disappointed when a new version wasn't introduced at MacWorld last month.
Now that a 16GB version is available (Engadget has all the news), is it time to switch?
Honestly, I'm really torn. Are they introducing a new iPhone because people are complaining about the size of the hard drive? Or are they releasing a new version because iPhone 2.0 isn't coming any time soon?
I'm hoping it's the former, and that iPhone 2.0 will be available come summer or fall. But I'm not holding my breath.
Having more hard drive room is a plus, but 16GB still isn't enough for all the music, movies and podcasts I currently have on my 30GB iPod video. Plus, there aren't any new features (at least none that I'm aware of), so it doesn't fulfill some of my needs.
But it's still tempting.
What do you think? Is iPhone 1.5 enough a reason to switch?

Family Guy - Blue Harvest - I know, it's not even close to new, but I finally finished the Star Wars episode of Family Guy.
It's hilarious, and if you haven't seen it, go watch it.
Desperately seeking a Wii - CNet's Daniel Terdiman recounts his efforts to find a Nintendo Wii before Christmas. Non-surprising spoiler: he doesn't find one.
If you don't get lucky finding one in stock, do like the rest of us — stand outside in the freezing cold. It may not be fun, but it works.
Control your entire house with your iPhone or iPod Touch - This is a pretty sweet home automation controller. I especially like the movie interface.
$64,000 question here, though: can you do it wirelessly? All of the pics have the iPod docked — hopefully it won't need to be.
