Survey tallies iPhone interest, finds only 6% to buy
According to a recent survey taken by Markitecture, 77% of the 1300 people that responded knew about the iPhone, although only 6% said they were likely to purchase the phone in the next year. Cost was cited as the top reason for not purchasing the device, with carrier issues and/or contracts coming in a close second. Other stats tallied by the survey showed that out of the 77% familiar with the iPhone, 41% had a good impression, while out of those very familiar with the product, an overwhelming 83% had either an excellent or very good impression.

no way the phone price is not subsidized by Cingular (er, AT&T) - price will be $200-300… +$1500/yr in monthly charges, that is.

I’m having second thoughts just about the size of the iPhone. How do you bring it to parties? I’m not a fat American with big pockets
A problem until purses are fashion amongst men too.
