  • I’d buy a $900 phone for sure, but I’d only pay 200 for it.

  • listem im getting sick of microsoft there making it harder for people who have already payed good money for thier os systems includeing my self all the way from 95 to vista ultimate, and then they pull a fast one on thier customers with win 7 leaveing all the people that have spent god knows how much on keeping up with thier os the only thing that would convince me that microsoft is worth staying with is at least provide win 7 to customers who have keep up and are useing vista ultimate when are they gonna learn that a good customer is always right and a good customer that sticks with them from 95 up should at least at least be offered win seven free convince me microsoft has its customers at heart roanihawk@hotmail.com

    • totally agree with you… i bought a macbook pro for 1100 dollars but i tell you what .. their customer service is waaay less bitchy, no product keys to fuck with, and he ones you do have are only to verify that particular app and u can use it as many times as u want with that copy….plus for $300 more i can run NATIVE windows….also lets not forget .. more durable materials , epic  9 hour battery life on low settings and not so many friggin updates.. at least when apple does updates they are major… i mean vista has how many now.. smdh,,,,,, lol

  • My cell provider would like me to get an iphone, even subsidized, it ain’t happening. I won’t pay the fee for web access on my cell I have now. I’ve been buying my phones from Wallyworld any way.

  • Thats why we all sign up for 2 year contracts with major carriers.  This $899 phone will then cost us around $200.

  • I have to say…I have an iPhone 4S. If it ever dies I would buy another.

  • First of all, it’s unlocked, part of the reason the price is so high. Second, the phone is part of a bundle with speakers, Bluetooth headset, and headphones.

    And by the way, if it was just the phone for $900, no one would buy it.

  • Dear Onuora,
    Well it’s only US$ 899! If by using that handphone maybe it’ll bring you happiness and joy, and the mechanism of the lucky charm on business works, why not. Today many kinds of handphone are spread in the market showing it’s unique fuctions, it’ll fade away as time goes by, new model will be emerging to replace the old, at least we have taste the luxury and enjoy the call of the new tech world. Thank you.
