The show's over. Apple better lay another golden egg. They missed their golden opportunity to open the iPhone OS up and trump Android. They will be a footnote 10yrs from now, just like when we speak of the PC/MAC and how windows/microsoft took over the world.

[citation][nom]Marco925[/nom]i smell iPhone 4G[/citation]
So what exactly does that smell like? :)

Anyway, I think that Apple will continue to do what they have been doing for decades: Innovate on occasion, lock down their IP, and continue to operate within a niche market. Where as others will borrow from their ideas and openly license their products and dominate a majority of the market. Rinse and repeat...

Damn! I just bought an 8GB iPhone 3g for $97 at WalMart on April 29th. What really sucks is that WM's Return Policy on iPhones is 15 days and not the standard 30 days like from an AT&T Store :(

[citation][nom]nforce4max[/nom]$97 is still to high, I rather buy $97 worth of toilet paper than this trinket.[/citation]
Then go ahead buy it... janitors don't deserve iPhones anyways..

How about all contract phones be free, and we only have to pay if we don't want a contract? And not a anal raping price too...
$800 for a phone is ridiculous, or compared to $50-100/month contracts.

Smells like dirty apples.

I wouldn't even mind paying 97 bucks for this phone, just don't require me to pay for the 30.00 a month smart phone service. That phone is perfectly functional without all that BS. Do you hear me AT&T?
