    Does anyone have any verifiable numbers on how many of these they are selling?

    @Izzy Gardon: Yes you would have to still pay for it but buying the phone this way appears to make it optional.


    So you have to ask yourself is it worth it to spend $700 bucks for an iphone with no data plan...?

    Yeah, it's older, but still better. I'm still laughing at all these people that think the Pre will revolutionize "coms" or whatever you wanna call them.

    @John_001: It may not revolutionize anything, but it'll certainly do a lot more for a great many people, and it does everything the iPhone can/will do, and more (far more powerful processor for one thing).


    The iPhone didn't revolutionize anything either, unless you consider a bunch of people paying a ridiculous amount of money to shake phones in order to make farty noises a revolution.

    $600 & $700 is fucking ridiculous ... especially when you consider that if you spend just a couple hundred more, you could buy a Macbook and use Skype. Yeah, I know it's not the same thing ... but it's crazy that they're going to sell a locked phone for that much money. Crazy.

    @dead_red_eyes: It's a ridiculous waste of money, is what it is. There's not a single thing in it, or that it can do, that's worth that kind of dough.


    In fairness, all smartphones are ridiculously overpriced. There's not one good goddamned reason for a cellphone, even with half a gig of ram, and a 640x480 screen, to cost more than $200, ever.


    But, with the whole contract and ltied-to-network deal, they got ya by the balls, so to speak. If you're not going to bend over for them willingly, they want to make damn sure they're getting a good chunk of change from you. Hence the wallet-rape.

    @dead_red_eyes: Where I'm from, the contract-free (but SIM-locked) iPhone 3G goes for about $850 from the official carrier. And yeah, people still buy.


    Crazy stuff, I tell you...

    Holy shit, people will actually pay $850 for an iPhone?! Now that is ridiculous.

    "The E63, based on the E71, already dropped in Europe"

    which one is "dropped". and what is "dropped"?

    I checked out the E71 and found the keys just a bit too small for my ham hands and sausage fingers. This phone will be great for all you tiny-handed folk..
