@monkbent -> considering plastic is cheaper than metal. The only way I see it is profit margins. Good for Apple, not so good for us -
@hsouris plastic savings are likely in the single digit dollars -
@monkbent why switch to plastic? Colors? It’ll be interesting to see the raw cost of materials Also, what about next year? 5S thrown out? -
@hsouris $10~$20 savings results in $30~$50 lower price. Plus, why not? Makes old product new -
@monkbent yeah, I’m all for the ‘new product’ strategy, which is why I can’t fathom keeping the 4S around. - 2 more replies

@monkbent well, iPhone 5 sells for $649 that would drop to $549 after the 5S. It’s reasonable to think 5C would fit right in at $449 ->Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
