Hi Thomas,
I think if you get a contract then the phone is a lot cheaper. For example I
got my iPhone 4s when it came out for like $200 or so, and it's a 16 gig. if
you really wanted lots of music you may want the 32 gig or so, but even that
was only like $300. In my case, however, I really only use my phone for
apps, so only needed the 16 gig.
Hth,
-Michael.

Hi Dark,
Yeah, well the cost is the big sticking point for me. personally.
Tonight my wife and I were out at Wal-Mart getting a few items so I
decided to look at the phones Verison had in their store and I can't
see putting down $500 USD down on an iPhone 5 when I can get an Asuse
Nexus 4 running Jellybean 4.2 for $238 which is less than half the
cost with about the same features. Actually, as a software developer
the Nexus has one advantage over the iPhone and that is that Droid OS
is an open system meaning I can develop my own apps from my Windows PC
and install them on my phone without having to purchase an Apple Mac,
use their development kit for iOS, register my app with the Apple
store, and all that other business just to write games and other apps
for my smart phone. Google's Droid OS is basically the way to go for
someone wanting to develop quick and inexpensive apps for a smart
phone without having to sell your soul to Apple to write software for
their proprietary devices.

Hi tom.
Well as you know games were part of the reason I bought an Iphone 5 in the
first place and I got a very good deal from my phone company. I don't have
any problem with the screen size personally for brousing, texting etc, so
I'd recommend it myself albeit that it does cost.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
