IPHONE $199 16G<br>N900 $582.00 on Amazon <br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think one of the most important things to note is that those prices are not apples-to-apples. You can get an N900 for $550 without a contract. You can get an iPhone for $200 or less, but you have to sign up for a 24 month wireless contract. I think the cheapest contract is $60/month. That means, add on $1440 to the price of the iPhone.</div>
