how much are iphones..

this is what i got off a site

MTN is offering the iPhone 4 on the following packages (all on a 24 month MTN AnyTime 200 contract) (R200 worth of airtime, not 200 minutes):

16GB iPhone 4 with a 150MB internet bundle: R379 per month

16GB iPhone 4 with a 300MB internet bundle: R429 per month

32GB iPhone 4 with a 150MB internet bundle: R429 per month

32GB iPhone 4 with a 300MB internet bundle: R479 per month

Vodacom has the 16GB iPhone 4 free on an iPhone Talk 500 contract at R925 per month. This includes 500 minutes, 250MB data and 100 SMSes a month. Unconfirmed pricing indicates that the 32GB version of the device would be available on the same package, with a R2 869 cash pay-in.

On the iPhone 120s contract (120 off-peak minutes, 100MB data, 50 SMSes) at R249 per month, the pay-in will be R2 189 for a 16GB and R3 329 for a 32GB iPhone 4. On a iPhone 240 contract (240 minutes, 250MB data, 100 SMSes) at R595 per month, the pay-ins will be R1 959 and R3 099, respectively. Vodacom offers the option of subsidising the pay-in with a slightly higher monthly price across the 24 months.

The devices also seem to be available on most Vodacom contracts. It says full pricing details would be available today from outlets.

On the face of it, MTN's packages seem more affordable, largely because of how it has bundled airtime and data. R379 per month (with no pay-in) for the 16GB iPhone 4 is a fair entry-level price. At present, there are bundled SMSes and more tiers on Vodacom's iPhone contracts.

Cash prices aren't yet available, but the operators have privately suggested devices can be purchased outright somewhere between R7 000 and R8 000 (16GB model). The 32GB model is expected to be about R1 000 more. One analyst pointed out Tuesday night that prices would be more affordable than previous versions of the device simply because of the strength of the rand.

If u looking for constant access to the net from ur phone a blackberry would make much more sense, Iphones have always been made for people that want to look cool and always make a fashion statement but as just a phone it doesnt make sense spending so much for it

I make sure i go through every album i have atleast once (not skim through it but listen to it from start to finish)
but even then some gems just pa** you by and because of the quantity of music coming out you rarely get a chance to go back to discover it.

Dont lie Frost, it sounds more like u have been doing this for a while now but this is the first beat u actually felt secure enough to let the ppl judge on.
The kick kinda keeps dissapearing into the background and dont like the overuse of the percussion that much but otherwise very well done.

Just to add my 2 cents (not that it counts for much)
the first 3 was just okay mainly because it has the generic chops rearranged with a drum pattern.
I like hop scotch, the ba** line is nice and smooth and overall it has a nice flow to it...

My question is was Guess Who the only movie you had available for this lol

Like the beat, very laid back and easy on the ear.
Sound quality is terrible, so it makes it hard to hear whats being said but if thats u on the 2nd verse, props, i like the flow there...

Oh and the chorus sucks lol but otherwise it has a good underground feel
