iPhone 3G: Grab at ~$600, head to Europe
After jailbreaking iPhone 2.0, now according to Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster) estimates the non-subsidized iPhone would likely cost around $600. That is “Wow”!!
The report from Gartner and Piper Jaffray have estimated confidently that the iPhone will be controlling 17 percent of the worldwide smartphone market by the end of 2009. In North America, they expect that number to be closer to 30 percent (see the chart below).
$600 is a lot, roughly three times the amount the device will sell for when subsidized around the world. But it’s also the price of the original 8 gigabyte iPhone. Plenty of people had no problem paying that a year ago, so will they now do the same to unlock the new phone?
PS: I think i will ^^;
