"If you thought that Apple will be absent from the news during CES (which it traditionally doesn't attend), you were wrong. Apple may not have any new products to show off at the moment, but the iPhone 3GS just became a lot more affordable, as AT&amp;T cut its price to a mere $49 dollars, the Wall Street Journal reports. \nRight now, the price tag on the 8 GB version of the iPhone 3GS is still $99 dollars, but starting Friday, the price will be cut in half, making the iPhone 3GS quite an attractive option for users on the lookout for an affordable smartphone. The new price tag, of course, also comes with a two-year service contract and data plan.\nIt's a logical move for AT&amp;T, which is expected to lose iPhone exclusivity in the U.S. soon. The company announced at CES that it plans to start offering 20 new smartphones this year, which should reduce its dependence on Apple's smartphone. \n[via WSJ]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
