Hm, makes sense but the Price of an iPhone is still far beyond good and evil for buying it just for Gaming (at least here in Germany) so I think it can't match with the GP2X unless you already HAVE a iPhone. ^_^
The iPhone 3G is going to be only $199 on July 11 (at least here in the US). That's $100 *less* than the cheapest iPod Touch! Of course, there is that pesky 2-year contract to deal with....
Yeah, at $70 a month, no thanks. It's obvious that AT&T is making back the money they're subsidizing.
Right. Here is a (german) overview over german, austria and british prices of phone and Contract:
http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/mobil/0,1518,559870,00.html
Cheapest pricing of everything together (Device, running costs...) in Germany is around €890,95 over 24 Monts (contract period)
Austria is €995 (24 Months)
GB is €790 (only 18 Months)
I really can't see any direct Competition releated to the GP2X.
But of course if people already HAVE a iPhone, this Controll Pad is a great thing.
But if you plan to buy a Gaming/Multimedia Gadget, the iPhone is not the best thing. I don't have the prices for the iPod Touch but I think this could be a much better and Cheaper Alternative for the iControll Pad.
Oh, does the iControllPad have Shoulder Buttons?
