Apple Drops iPhone Price to $199 and Converts Blackberry Fans
As you know, I’ve been a strong advocate of my Blackberry Curve and wrote an article a few months ago titled Five Reasons Why I Chose a Blackberry Curve Instead of an iPhone. I take my Blackberry everywhere, and am continually checking email, checking on my websites, finding my location on Google Maps with the built-in GPS, and loving everything about it… EXCEPT:
It’s Internet speed is too (yawn) slow. EDGE (the network technology used by the Blackberry and many other mobile phones) is dull, and way too slow compared to the new 3G speeds that the iPhone will have come July 11th, 2008 when it’s released to the masses.
I already know how fast 3G is from my Aircard that plugs into my laptop and gives me fast broadband internet speeds. That’s what we’ll have with the new iPhone.
According to Apple CEO Steve Jobs an 8GB iPhone 3G will sell for $199 and the 16GB model will sell for $299, and will come in white and black versions. You can buy these iPhone 3G models on July 11.
Dropping the price to $199 makes this a no-brainer decision (especially if they keep the lower monthly service plan that’s always been less expensive than the Blackberry’s $30 monthly rate).
GPS: yep, it’s built-in.
