    I'll purchase a 3G iPhone when I'm confident I can pay the highly expensive monthly plans provided alongside with the purchase of the iPhone.

    Well, here is the rumored info going around in Japan at the moment. It shows that the price(like most of their regular phones) is quite expensive. To be exact, it says that the iPhone will be 61,920yen(or 2,580yen a month). Which is like I said before, is roughly $600.00(or $26 dollars a month)

    Here is the Japanese article

    And a pic showing the "supposed" employee memo.

    This just lights my arse. This is still a rumor however, it is very common with Softbank phones and I can so see this happening. I really can't see how they could do this considering that it will be subsidized.

    Yeah, as this is a rumor, I won't add this to the thread.

    See what happens when you spam? You get banned.

    This isn't a thread to discuss the 3G iPhone's material, rather the prices and plans around the world. Please refer to another 3G iPhone thread to discuss that.
