Can someone explain to me how a 64Gb module that costs Apple just $6.27 more than the 16Gb module costs the consumer $200.00 more!?! That's not taking into account the savings Apple makes by pre-buying in bulk. I love Apple's products but disg…

I don't see why it is any indication of a new iPhone that the British press are being invited by the iPhone PR team. We are expecting an overview of iOS5, which is clearly the domain of the iPhone PR team regardless of whether or not there will be n…
