The handset price on pay as you go should really be about £150-180 it costs apple £123.29 to make so if the handset retailed at anything like what the original iPhone costs then thats BS

I would probably buy it at that price too you get soo screwed by networks like O2 , the cheapest most rubbish contract costing you £30 a month! for what... using their network/ probably another companies satalite...

Now add on shipping to the uk, o2's slice of the cake oh and a little thing called vat and a few other costs and your looking around the £300 marks easily.

If it ca,e out at £150 on payg how many pay monthly customers do you think they would loose.

Email, Real Msn (no mobile ****), internet, phone, mms, office, ebooks etc..
