Date: 2012-05-08 03:06 am (UTC)I was surprised by the indication in the mugging article that IPhones cost 700 pounds in the UK. That seems awfully much (says a person who's never even touched one)... But perhaps that corresponds to the most expensive one on the Apple site, which is $850 (64 GB, unlocked, contract-free).
