It's not the price of the phone, it's the year-and-a-half contract

I've been tempted by the iPhone from the start, but I just don't want to be tied in to a year and a half contract paying £35 a month. Besides, won't Apple antagonise a lot of early users if they introduce too many improvements to the phone in the first year (or two years in the States)? I think Apple could be tying their own hands. People will be stuck to their contracts with an early model, and unable to upgrade.
