Free OS? So your saying nobody put time and effort into developing it? Are you saying the hardware cost next to nothing to make?

Thats like saying you should'nt have to buy a computer because it has Linux on it.

Free as in speech, not beer. You're thinking of the wrong "free" :)

He's obviously saying it should be less $. A linux computer does have a lower price tag than a computer with similar specs.

The iPhone 3G's upfront price is made artificially low by the inflated monthly data rate, which AT&T forces you to get.

If this model sells at the same price but has reasonably-priced data (and SMS) offerings -- the $10+ savings per month over two years would really add up.
