Whether the point was to reinvigorate lackluster sales or clear inventory for that new 3-G model, it appears the £100 iPhone price cuts announced last week in the U.K. are having the desired effect. Mobile Today reports that recent store checks reveal iPhones are moving off the shelves "like [it was] launch day again." In fact, some 02 retail stores in London, Newcastle and Birmingham completely sold out of the phones on the first day the price cuts were announced. Similarly, Carphone Warehouse says that sales have more than doubled since the discounts went into effect.
Me, I'm interested in seeing what happens to prices once the 3-G version hits stores. Could we see a $300 8GB iPhone this summer?
