Actually, I think that if Apple joins the race to the bottom, then that would be a major mistake. There is always someone out there who can make something cheaper. Apple's strength has always been putting out quality products that people are willing to pay a premium for.

I agree with the previous poster, a lot of android fanboy wishful thinking in that article. There are a lot of cheap Android phones out there. People getting the cheapest smart phone they can find is not Apple's target audience.
