Apple has published out-of-warranty repair prices for the iPhone Duo on its iPhone service and repair page, with the highest fee, for “other damage”, set at $1,499 in the US and £1,499 in the UK.
The estimates cover common repairs carried out by Apple itself. In the UK they include VAT; US prices may be subject to tax.

Apple says it inspects each device to set the final fee, and that Apple Authorised Service Providers can set their own prices. Repairs covered by an AppleCare plan carry a service fee that is the same at Apple and at authorised providers, and Apple notes that for the iPhone Duo a separate AppleCare fee applies to replacing the cover layer.
