Sounds like a Wii remote. Might need some sort of wrist strap, otherwise the phone could accidently be thrown.

Hi Jen,
outright purchase prices will be set by Apple (probably some time in July) and are not likely to change until the next model comes out (probably mid 2011).

The price mentioned by the Telstra shop assistant doesn't sound believable to me, I suspect the prices will be very close to the current 3GS prices. The 3GS was introduced in July 2009 when the pacific peso was around the US$0.80 mark, just like it is now. However, nobody (incl. mobile carriers) will know until Apple Australia make their intentions known.

Whatever sort of deals mobile carriers will offer in conjunction with a plan is completely up to them. Those offers have to be looked at and compared when they are published.

Cheers
Steffen.

Been there done that.
I have bowling and fishing apps. Have lost the phone due to "the flick" a few times.

Ah haha.
I was reading the above posts and a thought struck me(it drew blood too).... Apple haven't released a gaming console to try take the Wii/Playstation/XBox market.

Well, they will be.... get ready for the iBox!
