Macworld 2008 came and went, but no changes in the lineup of iPods or iPhone. Almost three weeks later, Apple has unveiled a new iPhone and a iPod Touch with twofold of storage compared to their previous model, which means iPhone now comes in 16GB flavor and iPod Touch in 32GB.
The double storage iPhone comes with a price tag of $499, while the existing 8GB model remains $399. The new 16GB iPhone costs just as much as the old 4GB iPhone, which was discontinued after the initial launch.
New 32GB iPod Touch is also priced at $499, making it the most expensive iPod ever sold. It’ll join its 8GB and 16GB sibs priced at $299 and $399 respectively. Those who own older models of iPhone or iPod Touch shouldn’t really be bothered because their prices have remained as it is. Remember the debacle when Apple dropped the price of an 8GB iPhone and discontinued 4GB model? Apple won’t be doing the same mistake over again.
Both 16GB iPhone and 32GB iPod Touch are available at Apple’s online store. You also purchase 32GB iPhone from AT&T’s retail outlet.
