New iPhone price will rock

New iPhone price will rock
Get ready for iPhone 2.0: Today Apple is widely expected to introduce a zippier version that will operate on both a faster AT&T network, and speedier networks internationally, USA Today reports.

The price also will rock: $199, according to people with knowledge of the matter, down from the current $399 and $499, the newspaper reports.

According to sources, the new Apple device will be available in Apple and AT&T stores, including Indianapolis, beginning this summer.

For consumers, the shift to 3G will be akin to going "from dial-up to broadband," says Gene Munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray.

Consumers and reviewers alike gushed about its compact, futuristic design and sensitive touch-screen. But even its biggest fans have had one persistent chief complaint: The iPhone's Internet network from partner AT&T was too slow.
