Apple knows how to do business. The whole "Twice as fast. Half the price" tagline plastered at their main page has flaws!
$199 for an 8GB iPhone 3G? It's only applicable to current iPhone 2.5G & AT&T users! If you're an AT&T subscriber but doesn't own an iPhone, check whether you're qualified for the offer. If you don't previously own an iPhone and also not an AT&T subscriber, you'll have to pay $399 for an 8GB iPhone 3G or $499 for the 16GB model.

It's written here.
Now you're making sense, Apple.
I was dumb enough to be fooled by the whole "$199 for an iPhone, so cheap your pants will drop!" scam. After all, Apple products don't come cheap, there's NO WAY an iPhone could be sold for only $199 when an iPod Touch with equal memory costs $299!
I should've known.
$399 for an iPhone? I'd rather spend $100 less to get an iPod Touch instead. After all, iPod Touch has all the functions I need: music, WiFi, maps, notes. I have a phone(which isn't all that OLD, it's less than a year old) so it doesn't really affect me much without the phone and SMS function. It's the 21st Century, who would pay additional $100 to get an iPod which can make phone calls and also SMS?
It's like, "OMG my iPhone can make phone calls and send text messages OK! Your iPod Touch cannot!"
Yeah, big deal. My Sony Ericsson phone can send MMS, can your iPhone do the same thing? No? Shut the hell up then.
"But my iPhone got Bluetooth lor! Your iPod Touch don't have!"
Bluetooth what? You Bluetooth is as good as non-existent. It can ONLY connect your phone to a Bluetooth headset. THAT'S ALL. Mine can send and receive files. Period.
"Um, um, my iPhone is cool OK!"
Er, I think my iPod Touch is cooler without the earpiece lor.
"My iPhone got 2MP camera! Your iPod don't have! HAHAHA!"
A camera in a phone? My Sony Ericsson has a 2MP camera too. And I have a digital camera and a dSLR. So... No, your iPhone doesn't seem appealing to me.
"But I have everything in the form of an iPhone whereas you need to send text messages from your phone, take photos from your camera and go online from your computer!"
True. My phone may not be as slim as an iPhone, but it definitely isn't as LONG and as WIDE as an iPhone. My digital camera is small and can take better pics than an iPhone, my iPod can stay in my pocket and does its job and not bother me a single bit. And when I return to Moscow, I'll have internet speed of 6Mbps, so I won't fall for that 3G speed. Besides, I mostly use the internet to DL AND SURF PORN, so an iPhone is not that convenient as the screen is small(I can't have enough visual feel of the action) and that I am decent enough to not surf and watch porn "on-the-go".
So, no, iPhone is not for me.
P/S: The sole reason I wanted an iPhone is because of the price. Now that the price is not what I thought is was, there's no reason for me to get an iPhone. So yeah, I'm now officially getting an iPod Touch.
P/P/S: Damn, I thought I would be getting an iPhone so I thought I could use the money I've saved to get an iPod Touch to get other stuffs. Now that other stuffs have been bought, I don't have money for my iPod. I could manage either an 8GB or 16GB model only. Good bye to my 32GB iPod. Sob. It's all fuckin' iPhone's fault.
