Check out this link to see why the iPhone may cost as little as $100 to manufacture (I realise there are other costs to Apple, but they are seriously minimal in these quantities). |
I remember reading an article about 18 months ago that did a cost breakdown of the average Nokia phone, it worked out that Nokia added a huge amount of markup on their phones.
So it doesn't surprise me about the iPhone, especially when you consider that the parts are all very standard. We're really paying for the chance to get our hands on the UI and the design.
