iPhone vs. the competition

Factors of Competition
Blackberry Pearl Motorola RAZR

iPhone differentiation

iPhone

Customer segments
• Enterprises are unlikely to buy iPhones
– Price ~40% higher than Blackberries’ – Blackberries have top-notch push-email

• iPhone has features that appeal to mass consumer market • However, sales will be gated by network and price

Marketing decisions (I)
• Pricing – Skimming strategy – Typically cell phone prices drop rapidly – Expect Apple prices to fall slowly • Product – Add functionality, maintain price – Versioned iPods for price-sensitive segment

Marketing decisions (II)
• Distribution
– Restricted availability to Cingular and Apple stores – New iPhones will open channels & drive sales

• Promotions
– Cingular iPhone discounts unlikely – Expect iPhone voice / data plans

Early adopter market ~8.7m
• • • • Cingular customers Cingular subscribers with iPod Cingular subscribers with iPod Uptake rate from Cingular iPod customers in 1st year assumption • Est. uptake by Cingular iPod customers in 1st year 58m 30% 17.4m 50%
