Want to get the iPhone 3GS but think that it’s too pricey? Well, maybe an 8GB iPhone 3GS for $99 deal would help? This is still firmly in the “rumor” category, but word is going around that Apple is contemplating releasing said device for $99 as a method for combating Motorola’s DROID. We certainly wouldn’t mind a cheaper iPhone 3GS, even though it’s an 8GB version, at least it provides more options for end users, right?

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.
