In an open letter, CEO Steve Jobs apologizes to people who paid a $200 premium for the iPhone
  • Jobs caves

    What a crock. If you bought an iPhone when they came out and honestly thought the price wasn't going to drop -- and soon -- you're exactly the sort of sucker who deserved to overpay for this device.

    Granted, it's a store credit rather than a refund (which will increase Apple's sales, in the end), but it's ridiculous that Jobs felt he needed to throw a bone to these whiners.

    What's next? A bail-out of everyone who got in over their heads because they didn't read the fine print on their subprime mortgages?

    Stupidity should come with a price. In this country, it seems that all too often we're willing to forgive people for being morons.
