What the 'hackers' did!


The continuation of the story of iPhone.. Look what the 'hackers' have done!

Sales spike expected from iPhone price cut

Some experts:

"Australian sellers of iPhone unlock hacks are bracing themselves for a deluge of orders after Apple cut the iPhone's price tag by a whopping $US200 ($240).

The 8GB and 4GB models now retail for $US399 and $US299, respectively, but the latter will be discontinued once existing stocks sell out.

The price drop is expected to infuriate those who paid $US599 for the iPhone around its launch just over two months ago..."

whopping $US200 ($240) per Phone within 2 months! That's phenomenal. What' s the reson could be? Apple fears loss of monopoly over its 'locking with a particular network'.

How do we judge the scenario?
