David, you are right. But iPhone is a luxury brand. Obanla, yeah, they can be next in line @Blings: It's quite sad Jobs died when his company is booming

Endy Edeson..forget about luxury brand...it is easy to buy an iPhone in developed countries for $1,000...pay $200 at point of sales then after pay the remaining $800 installmentally

@Goodie: Buy "naa". That would be nice. You are sure of your investment. @David: Not everybody have the patience to pay in installment
