if they release a 5 would it be at the 200 hundred current upgrade/new phone price or would it be more, if they also release a 4s would it be 150 and the regular be at 100

I'm guessing

IPhone 4s - £200 on £35 pm plan

iPhone 5 - £300-£350 on £35pm plan
 
iPhone 4s....8mp camera and A5 chip, 3G only...199.95 with two year contract.

iPhone 5....$3,000,000 with two year contract because manufacturing yield is only 0.1% and we can only supply 5 in 2011. Delayng it longer makes it available on Christmas day only from 5AM to 6AM PST.

Carley Fiorina to take over for Tim Cook on Jan 15. Tim's stock options now estimated to be worth $0.001 each.

Apple now forced to withdraw design patent claim against Samsung so they can copy Samsung's workable products.

Steve Jobs saw the handwriting on the wall. He hated MobileMe so he replaced it with iCloud that eliminated the only MMe functions I ever used...iDisk and web hosting. Then he dreamed an iPhone 5 that can't be built and handed the wreckage to poor Tim who can only claim its Steve's disaster I'm just doing my best to bail it out. True...but that'll get you Carley as a replacement...only because Meg is taken...for a few months anyway until she finds a boy toy.

Looks accurate, they always make the newest device the same price as the last model. Just leaves me wondering about the iphone4 though...

Correct
4s will be 8gb and have plastic back, no glass

Plastic? LMAO. No way that happens. Apple won't give up their trademark quality in materials and craftsmanship just to make a cheaper phone. The 8gb of ram instead of 16gb would be enough to lower the cost. When in recent years have you seen apple make a plastic anything? (not including peripherals). Apple didn't secure all those aluminum CNC lathes to sell a plastic phone, let alone their most highly anticipated device.

You are correct, I was not awake yet when I wrote that. I meant to say aluminum. But I will tell you if the 4, 4s or 4whatever does become the lower priced phone it will not have a glass back.

They also always released a new model every year...they changed that this year so I wouldn't be surprised if we see the 5 or 4S jump up to $250 and $350 with the 4 being $150
 
I'm studying in sweden and the prices for the iPhone 4 on release were like €0 on a €70/month flat-rate contract and that flat-rate is about 25gb free surf/tether and call/sms how much you want. So the iPhone 5 will probably be the same. And a cheaper version will probably cost as much but on a 18 month contract instead.

Cheapest contracts will probably be around free on a €30 contract, free use for €20 for the "4+" and €50 for the "iPhone %" free use of the €50.
