Ludicrous. Are Apple to blame fixing handset cost at astronomical prices? Every year they continue to get more expensive, with minimalist advancements in features (subjective I know).

Cheapest deal is around £38 per month, 2 year contract. Unlimited mins/texts £199 for the phone!!

Can get the above without paying 199 you just need to look.

It's hardly price fixing, apple charge that amount for its device and others charge the same.
