Don't Expect This With Your Taxes, But Apple Has Slashed the iPhone Price
This is why I never, ever want to be the first one to buy a technology item when it hits the market. Prices always come down.
Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs has announced that the iPhone - introduced in June at a price of $600 - is now going to retail for $399.
I wonder how many city departments bought these phones at the original price? Knowing city procurement with $2500 toilets I am sure they probably found iPhones for $1200 each.
Sure most tech products do drop in price; ten weeks after introduction seemed a bit premature for early adopters.
Despite the cost shenanigans the iPhone seems to be a great product. The only drawback I see to it is you are currently limited to using the phone with one provider (AT&T) and you are required to sign a long term contract. Eventually though, the market will correct that so we don't need you to write any iPhone related legislation Lloyd Levine.

THE AMERO IS REAL
UNITED STATES, CANADA AND MEXICO TO BE MERGED INTO SINGLE NEW ENTITY NAMED NORTH AMERICAN UNION!
The governments of the US Canada and Mexico are conspiring in secret to merge the three nations into a new entity called the North American Union.
The US Government has intentionally overspent itself for the purpose of irreversibly Bankrupting the country. The idea is that they will drive the country into economic failure, then when millions of Americans are panicking at the prospect, offer them a solution of merging the three countries as "the only possible way" to avoid losing everything.
They will force Canada into the merger by telling them the US currency they hold and rely upon will be worthless and the only way Canada can even hope to salvage any of the funds is to join the NAU.
They will sell it to the Mexican people by saying it will instantly improve their buying-power and quality of life.
In reality, the value of the US and Canadian dollars will be significantly reduced to counter the worthless peso being absorbed. People in the US and Canada will suffer great financial loss while Mexicans will see significant gain. In the meantime, the financial elite and the politicians they own will make out like bandits!
TV NETWORK CNBC CONFIRMS: U.S. DOLLAR, CANADIAN DOLLAR AND MEXICAN PESO TO BE REPLACED BY THE "AMERO"
THOSE WHO ARE DELUDED INTO THINKING THESE ARE "FANTASY COINS" NEED TO GET THEIR HEADS OUT OF THEIR ASS!
CNN's "Lou DObbs" Reports President Bush Signed Formal Agreement to End United States as we know it!
Reports our country will become part of the North American Union including Mexico and Canada!
Are you implying that someone is planning a takeover of the US and its currency via the IPhone price reductions?
Uh Oh! I thought you were an insider with the City of LA. No? Any city employee or ex-employee knows we would never get an iPhone from the City. Geez! A lot of us that have anything still have pagers.
I thought you were at City Hall on some floor at some point in the past. The city is cheap when it comes to this stuff. It's usually the contractors that screw the city and charge the city $2500 for a toilet. I didn't see the $2500 toilet cost in your link either.
2:45: When the cops can barely get working radios that they need for public and personal safety, and three million in anti-terror toys was just announced today as a big deal, I kind of don't think that not giving every city employee an IPhone is "cheap."
Of course, I give them away to all my friends and employees, but then I'm an international financier who's commandeered Bush's brain and got the fool to buy into this Amero business.
In truth, if this is a real deal, it sucks. The Euro was among more homogenous and wealthy countries, not some third-world hell-hole whose own peso can't hold its value. And the Brits still opted out.
No iPhones in City Hall... although I saw Villar trying one out when he was buying shoes with the other woman.
I love my new iPhone. I am blessed to be white and have money in Los Angeles.
