magu:allsteve:Aaroona:allsteve: Just got a call from Melissa who said that they had limited information on pricing but that it was $199NZD.. sounds odd.. but she also mentioned there would be data plans etc on top. She could be refering to the US prices. Wait and see I guess. Mite have a chat this afternoon lol.
Sorry did you say she confirmed the pricing?
So that means we are not an exception to this rule of "199USD" price?
so about 264ish for the 8gb version..
That sounds likea nice price.. BUt i guess they'll once again rape us in DATA and Calling plans..
From what I recall that bit of the conversation went something like this...
Melissa: We got information about pricing it's going to be $199
Me: New Zealand Dollars?
Melissa: Uh, yeah. Of course there will be data plans etc.
Sorry if I just screwed up an embargoed press release. lol
It may not be $1000, but it's becoming really hard to believe it will be anywhere that low ($264).
Yeah, I understand what you mean, but is it really that hard to believe if you are on a 2 year contract?
I mean, they're gonna ramp up the charges no doubt. So after you consider all the money you put into the contract, the price really isnt too hard to believe (Assuming thats the price, of course)
allsteve:
Sounds like she doesnt really know
what shes talking about, just reading Apples press talking about the
US! Lets hope Im wrong :)
Yeah that's what I thought
too.. ah the media. They try. But then again maybe.. noo.. but maybe..
but no it couldn't be? Could it? My head hurts.
Haha, yeah one only hopes that it's true, and shes not just going off the Press Release and/or Conference based on the US pricing.
That'd be a little embarassing, I would think, so I would say she would have at least have her arse covered, wouldn't you? Because all it would take is one of us to ask the question of "Where did you get your information" or "Do you have proof of this?"
