wanting to buy an iphoneApr 21st, 2008 - 17:31:51

I think that the iphone which was priced at a stupid £369 just for the hande. And then atleast £35 a month afterwards was not very tempting and my wallet stayed closed. But noe the iphone has come down £100 to now, a more tempting, £169 i think Apple will have alot more custermers to provide their iphone with. But what about the very irst custermers? I know that Apple have been giving $100 vouchers for any Apple product, but that still isn't fair. If i was one of the first iphone custermers i would feel cheated and used as a sale oppertunity for Apple to say to a potentiel custermer 'Hey, look at the price drop, just for you!'. Well the first custermers of the iphone were the people that trusted Apple with their first product in the mobile phone market. Also the iphone is good, well the best in my opinion, but should be allowed on pay as you go, this will stop hackers succeeding to make the iphone a pay as you go mobile device, and it will stop Apple investing too much money in software technology to try and stop iphone hackers. But, ofcoarse, the price would have to change. So here's my idea, Apple should allow the iphone on pay as you go at the current price on the 8bg of £169. And for the 16 gb it should be £220 But only for the iphone custermers that have purchesed the iphone 4 months after it was first launched. And also have this deal to people who will purchase the iphone 3 months after this deal has started. But to people who have only seen the iphone in the local o2 or apple store, like me, the iphone 8gb version should be about £250 and the 16gb £330 on pay as you go. And a lower price for the handset when purchased on pay monthly. i.e for £35 a month the handset should be £90 for £45 a month the handset should be £115 and for the £55 a month the handset should be £135.
