    iPhone In Ireland and Austria Gives Us Excuse to Talk Beer

    The iPhone is now available in Ireland and Austria, for the usual 399 (8GB) and 499 euros (16GB.)

Apple Europe keeps milking European consumers with extremely abusive pricing, citing "marketing and importing costs." Whatever. European Union, it's time to bust this daylight robbery. And now I need a Guinness (hey, it's like black breakfast cereal). [TMobile and O2]
