How much does the iphone cost?

[Kool Aid Man]

I'm thinking about getting the iPhone. But I don't know how much it costs. And I don't know how to get the phone turned on. People tell me it sucks. But I don't know what to do. I don't want people telling me what phone to get and what not to get. What company turns the iPhone on for you and who do you have to pay the bills and stuff? Is it directly from Apple? People tell me the iPhone is really expensive. How much do Apps and stuff usually cost? And the games? And does it cost to watch movies on your iPhone?

And can you charge it or do you need to pay it to get it charged?
And how much is it for texting?
And how much is it for viewing the internet?
