$199 CAD for 8gb, $229 for 16gb, $279 for 32gb, $349 for 64gb. I have no use for 3g, but if I did, I'd pay an extra $50 for that.... maybe.

Whats the point of this? We all know Apple is going to overprice it. Doesnt matter if a billion of us screem $200, it will still cost $400.

Isn't the most expensive part of it the panel? I would think that would be a limiting factor in how much it would cost, since that to me is worth it.

Lets just put it this way.... If there was one laying on the ground in the local park while I was on a late night stroll, I wouldn't pick it up...

I would not. I would buy a netbook that has larger hard drive some with much longer battery and can close it when not in use to keep from hurting it. I myself really don't see any need for this. ipod touch is nice,small fits into my pocket and can do what this does.

this article should open up a can of worms...

That being said, $150.00 - $200.00 with data plan, though i would only get it for my girl, i do not support apple products but i would buy one for her as she wants one, she prevails over my petty differences.

Why would you need an IPS panel on this. You arent going to be running photoshop so you dont need the color rendering. You are going to be watching movies and games so you would want something that is a little bit faster than an IPS panel. Just my two cents. Not to mention with a glass screen its gonna be hard to tell the difference.

I would buy the base model for $300. $500 for the base model with 16GB of storage is completely ridiculous. I also feel like the 3G ones should be subsidized; I shouldn't be paying more to be paying more.
