Costs for the 16GB iPhone will start at €20 with an €89 per month contract, rising to as high as €250 with a €29 per month agreement. The new fees are believed to be a response to low European sales of the original iPhone, which was often priced between €200 and €400 while still requiring high monthly rates. Many Europeans are able to receives phones for free with new agreements. The lack of 3G broadband is also said to have been a deterrent, as the technology has been widespread in Europe for several years.
