The interesting part about IPhones in particular is that they are status symbols. I've seen plenty of working class folks, especially women, flaunting IPhones.

I'm sure part of the reason is that since most carriers (and Apple itself) will finance the phone cheaply, so the practical difference between the cheapest and most expensive phone is $30 a month.
