Apple overcharging for the iPhone?

why apple charging $750 iphone when new ipad + 4g costs $630?

based on quick calculations based on price of ipod touch (which iphone without phone part), , price of ipad 4g (which ipad with phone part), iphone 4 $220 more expensive should be, , iphone 4s $420 more expensive should be!

price discrepancy seems supported isuppli teardown component estimate of iphone 4s, $188, , new ipad + 4g, $364 (double of iphone 4s).

if conclude apple unnecessarily overcharging on iphone, theories why? or "because can"?

 

what r&d, software development, labor, etc ...

"cost breakdowns" don't account of that.
