another problem with farhad's argument
a price drop is NOT an improvement in the product!
they're selling the same phone! the $399 phone is not better than my $599 phone.
as i've read a number of places, this is just really bad marketing.
do i expect something? no. should apple do something? yes. a rebate would be nice. a store credit would be nice. apple has proven to me time and again they have terrific customer service.
as i said earlier i feel ripped off this time. i've already tried talking a friend out of buying an itouch, cuz quite frankly, as slow as edge is, finding accessible wifi sites has proven to be very difficult. and i live in new york city!!
one last comment: why is "tech" different? wouldn't you get po'd if you bought a car, a couch, a tv, a bike... any high priced item... and then saw that only 6 weeks later, the price had dropped 1/3? i think you would.
