poor quality redundancy

I mean, c'mon, this is not even up to WP's typical low standards: Apple has made a few changes to what they did with the original iPhone as well as the new iPhone 3G itself. They changed the price of the handset due to a survey performed which suggested that the phone was not affordable enough. The original iPhone itself had initially cost $499 for a 4GB model which discontinued later on. They changed how customers would be able to buy the new handset when with the original iPhone, people would just buy the handset in-store and then at home not activating it but alternatively instead, choosing to unlock the handset to their preffered network carrier. Now they require customers to activate their phones in-store so that in the end, customers would have to pay for the monthly contracts.

Also, considering that most of of the information on this page is already in the iPhone article, I think its a bit unnecessary. – ɜɿøɾɪɹℲ _{( тɐʟк • ¢ʘи†ʀ¡βs )} 02:11, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know. I'm trying to fix this article as you can see I even tried to make it a redirect but since users insisted I decided to improve it. -- iDosh! talk? 02:17, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gotcha. I'll just try to keep an eye on it and keep it in line rather than fight for a change, I know better ;) – ɜɿøɾɪɹℲ _{( тɐʟк • ¢ʘи†ʀ¡βs )} 02:19, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
