Is there a reason you think it would cost them $800 each? I doubt it even cost them $100 dollars to make it. I said this when they said they would be selling playstation 3 for less then what it costs to make it. I don't care if they are going to make money from licenses. No company is going to sell a product for less then what it takes to make. Just because it would cost an average person a lot of money to make an electronic device doesn't mean it will for a big company.

You may pay a dollar or two for a piece when the company probably pays a whopping ten to twenty cents a piece. Do you think these companies buy a few pieces at a time. They buy in bulk. They get a deal cause of the way they buy the stuff.

Just like the playstation 3 probably costs less then a $100 to make I should probably guess the IPhone is less then $50 to make.

Forget trying to argue it with me cause no matter what you say I'm not changing my thoughts on this.
