That amounts to only $4 a month for the life of the contract. Now if it was $99 for everything the 3GS has except for a smaller memory then I could understand (although I understand memory is probably the cheapest component). This seems like they are just using up their stock of 8GB models. Why would they bother continuing to make more of the 3G once they run out of stock, won't the need for different assembly lines cost more than just making a 8GB 3GS?</p> I know it is $100 but really if you are in the market for a new iPhone why would you spend $99 for the 3G that is already mostly obsolete when you could spend $199 to get the 3GS with twice the memory, faster processor, and a few better features?
