$200 iPhone!!!

Two things I didn't like about the iPhone initially were- 1)it's asking price and 2) lack of 3G despite it's high price.
Apple is all set to change all that, with the latest iPhone- the 3G.The new iPhone is priced at just $199!!Remarkable!
The new iPhone '3G' is half the price of the previous 2.5G entry-level one.As its name suggests-it even has 3G [Third-Generation] capabilities, allowing ultra-fast Internet surfing, downloads chatting, just to mention a few!!!
It's battery life.Best of all- it even comes with GPS!
It's going to be brought to India by Airtel and Vodafone.You won't get it's full potential till someone introduces 3G to India though.One slight let-down is the fact that it still doesn't have a front-facing secondary camera for easier 3G chatting, unlike it's rival- the Nokia N95 etc.
The 8 GB model is the one selling for $199, while the 16 GB is $299 [essentially-$200 and $300].
This is great news, considering how expensive it was when it was just launched.You'll have to wait till July 11 to go grab one though.
Now we can say- 'I phone, You Phone, We All Phone!!!'[cheaply, most importantly!].
