Apple takes a bite out of iPhone's price
You can now get get a brand spankin' new iPhone for the price of a refurbished one, or $99.
Apple announced Monday it has cut the entry price for an iPhone (8 gigabytes) by $100 to $99 while unveiling its newest model, the 3G S ($199 for 16 gigabytes and $299 for 32).
Just think. Only two years ago, all you eager beavers out there had to shell out a whopping $499 for a measly 4-gigabyte version of the iPhone.
But this is nothing new. Apple is famous for introducing a hot new toy at a steep price (iPod, anyone?). But eventually the price goes down, down, down, like clockwork.
