Caveat Emptor!!

Apple Link: Futurelawyer: The Unkindest Cut of All - Apple cuts prices on IPhone. I rarely disagree with the The Future Lawyer, primarily because most of the time he is right (and quick to tell you so) BUT this time I beg to differ. If you were crazy enough to spend $600 for a "fashion item" then you should just STOP WHINING about it.

How long have we known about "Moore's Law?" Everyone knew that this toy would be coming down in price and still the geek masses rushed to buy! Jobs may, or may not, be throwing consumers a bone with the rebate (i.e. since it is a store credit) but he need not apologize for capitalizing on fashion. It is simply the way that the fashion business works.
