iPhone 2.0: $600

»iPhone 2.0: $600

AT&T has released the pricing for the new iPhone. <a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9981676-7.html">Without a contract, it costs $600 for the least amount of memory</a>. That is the base price. Getting a contract decreases the initial cost, of course.

AT&T will begin offering the iPhone 3G phones at its retail stores beginning July 11 at 8 a.m. local time. AT&T is the exclusive iPhone carrier in the United States. Under its offering, the lower price will be available to only customers who purchased an iPhone before July 11, or are activating a new customer line with AT&T, or are eligible for an upgrade at the time of purchase. Customers also are required to sign a two-year contract. AT&T customers who are not eligible for an upgrade discount can buy the iPhone 3G for $399 for 8GB model, or $499 for a 16GB version, under a two-year contract. Customers who purchase the phone without a contract would pay $599 for 8GB or $699 for a 16GB.

Kinda loses its value to me, then. Eh, oh well.

Michael: Jodie, how's my schedule look for today?
Jodie: You've got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese Embassy regarding wildlife protection.
Michael: Oh, yeah...sorry, but I'll have to cancel that. I'm heading out to save America!

I think the price drop is a really good idea. But, I just wish AT&T wasn't their carrier of choice. Anyone who has had problems with the iPhone has had to call AT&T for support and they say the support really sucks hard. I have T-Mobile as my carrier and the customer support is near perfect. I'm not willing to sacrifice that for an iPhone.
