Why does anybody care about iphones anymore? Android is much better and you actually get to choose your phone.
someone posted earlier about data plans only for the rich... well my 2 year contract is only £32 a month with 5000mins plus 5000 texts plus UNLIMITED DATA with no fair use policy rules. on 3.
cheap as chips.

It could be $50 when bought with a contract...or the contracts could be $50 a month for the lowest option.
Contracts already ARE $50/month on the lowest option.

In Canada at least.

Oh the irony

Making a cheaper phone is something Apple should have done a while ago already when they saw the success of the iPhone in general. Not that it'd make someone buy one, but at least they'd make money off the people who can't afford an iPhone 4 at the moment

I'm amazed at the number of people thinking that this is an off-contract price being discussed and then calling bullshit on it. Your heads are up your asses in the first place. That's why you smell shit.

As always, wait until the conference before throwing your feces at Apple. Have a proper reason instead of using backwards ass logic to create one.

Rogers has them set at $45. It's after all the taxes that brings them over $50.

$50 with contract seems reasonable for this. Keep in mind that every time a new iPhone comes out the old one gets a huge price cut, usually to around $100. So this is an old price-cut model and it's also a downgrade from the actual iPhone 4, so $50 is reasonable.

Sorry, I didn't think about exchange rates and stuff. I thought that would have been mega-expensive, I know £50 a month would be!

Well, even if it's around 100 dollars for just the phone, that would be a great value to be honest. If it's sub 150 I don't see how people could complain about the price, seeing as how a 16GB 4G is like 300 dollars.
