How much would you pay for the iPhone?
Following up on curious cat's earlier post on the iphone, and realising that most people have a serious grouse about the possible pricing of the iphone,
I wonder just how much folks are willing to pay for such a device, or how much you think it should be sold for?
Remember it could be:
1. A 4gb ipod nano with a 3.5" touch screen and widescreen video viewing capability
2. A mobile phone with Bluetooth 2.0 + wifi 802,1b AND g + 3G + 4gb storage
3. A PDA (I dare you to tell me tell me its not a PDA; if you can call a lifedrive one....well, a mobile manager
)
4. A UMPC-like device that runs a sophisticated OS
HOW MUCH WILL YOU PAY?will the child you once were, be proud of the adult you have become?
PDAs > Palm Tungsten T3 >> T|X + 4gb A-Data SD Card + Gomadic Battery Extender + Razr V3x + Tomtom Navigator 5 + seidio G4850S powered mount + apple imac G5 24"
+ Palm Treo 750v (yes; windows mobile, and looooving it
) iPhone 2g (Jailbroken), iPhone 3g (Jailbroken) but still waiting for iphone 3.0!

Re: HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY FOR THE iPHONE?
I would pay 300GBP but wouldn't want it locked to a service provider so guess I will have to wait.
Also I believe the device isn't 3G capable just GSM with EDGE support, so a version 2 with 3G support would be preferable to me but the inclusion of Wi-Fi does offset the lack of 3G somewhat.M500 - T|T - T|X - Treo 680

Re: HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY FOR THE iPHONE?

I'm posting in London. Is that considered shouting? Should I move to Piddle Trenthide to avoid being rude?
