First of all, the iPhone is very reasonably priced compared to competitors like HTC and BlackBerry, honestly.

Second, the iPhone is part of the issue, but not for whatever reasons you're thinking - Apple gets a large cut of every phone and subscriber, and they keep tight reins on pricing. Basically, giving away iPhones (and other smartphones) like they do their other, throw-away garbage phones would be insanity.
