Some highlights from Steve Job’s Keynote via Gizmodo:
“iPhone started off at $599 for an 8GB device, which now sells for $399 — we want to make it even more affordable. I’m happy to tell you the 8GB will sell for $199.”
“We think the iPhone 3G will be affordable to almost everyone. 16GB model for $299 — for that model we have a white one”
