iPhone vs Droid vs Palm Pre: The Real Cost

Are these true numbers for you there ?

Some people don't care about the total cost. They want the phone they prefer and will usually pay for it. Cheaper to use doesn't always translate into being a better phone.

In this economy, saving $500 a year is a big deal.

It's definitely a lot bigger factor in people's decisions than it once was.

IMHO There are people who won´t care about price but the phone and others would think in their pockets a lot before buying.

I really need a 16GB? All are multitouch but 2 have multitask only?

$99.78 or $ 77.74 monthly ?? And more personal things.

Nevertheless, Wall Street expects Apple to sell over 7,000,000 iPhones in this quarter, so somebody's buying them.

I could never understand even with the steep monthly cost of the iphone, some how every teen, college student is walking around with an iphone. Thunderwang you are right there is a lot of people buying iphones. Its the hip thing to own.

Like I've said here before, I have a buddy who owns an iPhone 3GS. I've actually used it quite a bit, and it's NOT a bad phone. The UI is silky smooth, apps open much faster than on the Pre, video looks great on it and the iPhone can actually SHOOT video. Oh, yeah - real copy & paste.

I think a lot of people buy them because they want to own one, not just because it's "hip."

not to mention that its not mentioning how much apples texting costs are or the other phones which are all extra unlike sprint and to top it off sprint gets free moibile to any mobile min

Apple doesn't set texting costs, Carlos. AT&T does.
