Has anyone got Apple's infamous pay-per-touch Iphone? Geniously designed to take peoples money. We target dumb-founded teens and highly paid stupid models as our design speaks for itself. So unique.. the design!
Let's talk about it, have you got one? Whats your view? Do you like it? How did it come handy?

Let's see, a sleek elegant design, flawless and stylish for the standard individual. Now,
if one is to purchase such a lovely, high-tech sexy equipment where would they go? The most common is to walk into a Mobile Phone dealer that have these phones for sale. Now the options to purchasing it, buy outright for $1000 AUD and it's all yours! or would you care to sign a contract with us? it's only around $50 AUD a month! which you are basically creating debt with us so by the end of that contract, the total will be $1800 AUD! excluding phone calls, texts and internet usage! So now the phone is yours, aren't you happy to play around and use the features more often? We advise you to!

Did I also mention the fact this phone is touch-screen enabled? It's so amazing isn't it? I mean, you pay for each phone call you make as well as every message you send! Did we also mention to you that we can't really be bothered to inform you of how much you are spending everytime you are texting, calling or using the portable internet? We just store up your information! even if you exceed $700 worth of calls/texts/internet we don't tell you and we don't even intend to offer some sort of option that informs you automatically if you exceeded your limit a month! Oh yes! the internet, it's a fascinating device isn't it? We charge you per K/byte so basically, everytime you listen to something from a youtube website, download a picture or as small as browse your favourite sites on it, WE CHARGE YOU! It's awesome dont you think? Not to mention we purposely LOCK the Iphone so that you would pay us extra to unlock it for you!

Our latest invention, have you not heard? It's called download softwares! basically if you are sick of uploading songs to your Iphone or viewing them seperatly from a webpage you can download a music software from one of our hosts for a small amount of money. Not only that, every song you download, WE CHARGE YOU! It's so amazing isn't it? Also if you have problems looking for your closest restaraunt or conveniant shops and whatnot just download the aptute software! one shake of the Iphone and it shows your nearest restaraunt but don't forget, we charge you for downloading the software! Bored recently, want games on your Iphone? Sure, download our game software, it's just a little icon like all others that functions differently (music icon downloads music etc) and WE CHARGE YOU! Got bored of a game, sure! download another one and WE CHARGE YOU!. Experiencing slow internet and being capped often? Upgrade your internet plan with us for much more then you expected! having difficulties paying for using the internet on the Iphone too often and that we practically charge you even for the smallest thing of openning a browser and switching pages from wikipedia to google? easy solution, buy one of the internet packages, it's simply really, just pick a selection and you pay a set amount of money each month. So basically, if you don't exceed 2GB a month, we only charge you $49 AUD! but if you exceed, we are so happy to cap you as well as charge you for excessive usage! We are such geniouses are we and we play fair!

Welcome to the cellular life. There's so many limits and fee's that the service cost more then the whole device is worth. However, it's expected from a cellular company in order to really make profits. iPhone doesn't really make up the rules as far as how the celluar service works, but does control how the software is dealt with. I don't like iPhone, i believe it's a step backward with a pretty face attached to it.

Apple products have always been overpriced (well maybe not the Apple II or something). It's just part of their business plan.

I didn't mean it that way, but ya, you pay $$$ for the apple logo. Ballmer just made a huge statement about the so called "Apple logo tax"
