I bought the original iPhone for $299 and at the time thought that was dumb. Phones are going to the same model as just about everything else these days.

To me this is the biggest misnomer about phone prices. No one realizes that all those iphones they were buying for 199-299 were all subsidized prices. I don't remember what the real price was but I wouldn't be surprised if it was 750 or higher at least.

Actually the original iPhone was $399 (4gb) non-subsidized. I was mistaken on the $299. It was originally $499 then Apple dropped the price $100 and gave a bunch of people store credit after they complained.
