With the iPhone 5's release, the iPhone 3GS has been taken off the product lineup, and the iPhone 4 takes its place as the most affordable mobile phone offering now running iOS. Those who are looking to get an iPhone--at least in the US--can start from the iPhone 4 with 8GB storage for free on contract, and go as high as $399 for the just-announced iPhone 5 with a contract as well.
