NEW:

All info below is according to US Pricing

The iPhone 3GS has no FaceTime (front camera) and starts at $99. and the iPhone 4 (which has facetime) starts at $199

the iPod touch 4G is iPhone 4 minus the phone. and it starts at $229, but that's is all you have to pay, FOREVER. But the iPhone is $199 + Plan (which is monthly). That explains everything.

The problem is actually 2 parts. Advertising and demand. Apple's advertising budget is outrageous and in the end ultimately they have to recoup the cost from their products. The second reason is that with all the advertising they are the most popular brand which causes high demand which in return makes for higher pricing. Btw they are extremely overpriced if you compare other brands such as Sony,Zune, etc..

Is the iphone the same as the iPod touch?

No, an iphone is a cell phone that has speakers and you can text on and make phone calls. An ipod touch is an ipod. It is meant for listening to music but, most people who own an ipod touch mostly play games on it. But, an ipod touch you can download apps that you can text people on but the 2g ipod touch it doesn't have speakers. So, if you have an ipod touch you can't download an app that makes free calls because ipod touchs don't have speakers. But, iphone can do alot more than ipod touchs.
