and at the rate things are going we'll be using the iPhone for the next 5 years because apparently nobody is able to dethrone them. This is going to suck more and more because we will be at the whims of good ol' Steve.

Either way, what's the point of this thread? It's called supply and demand. End of story. There is demand for a 600$ phone so it's completely irrelevant how much it costs to make the phone.
