a few months ago i was watching the unveiling of the iphone, and Steve Jobs said it was only for $199. and now it is soaring as much as 40K++ php,..
did he lied? "liar liar his ass is on fire" or did he just made a mistake? iphone is a great gadget/phone but apple made a mistake,.
if you look into a wider perspective, its the supply and demand thing which is i learned from economics back on college. that if the demand is high and supply is less than the demand the price is very much affected by this, then the vice versa which is if the demand is lower than the supply the price would drop a fair amount to make the producers have their budget constraints met.
its an applauding move for apple or other telcos.
dude its because of the tax, when my mom sends me a gadget from states it will be taxed +50% of the price, meaning if she will send me an IPHONE it costs $199 + 50%($199) = $300, thats the taxed going to US govt, i dont know if the philippine govertment will tax you over iphone or not, or the customs, anyway. i have an Iphone right now when my Mom got home last week, its a nice gadget. its fun, i like the most is the star wars soundclip from iphone, ehe
