yes, stop whining
(from my FSJ post):
c'mon folks, you were willing to pay $600 for a freakin' phone and now you're upset?
first all of you were in our faces showing off your shiny new iPhone gadget while trying to act like you WEREN'T.
then you whine when the giant sucking sound of $200 in value reduction emanates like a ringtone from your phone. boo-hoo-hoo...
it's Moore's Law of technology pricing - get used to it. more important - it's APPLE technology value adjustment - get MORE used to it.
iPhone was already the #1 selling smartphone, and they'll sell even more at these new price points.
this is about more than price cuts - it's about THROAT cuts - bubye RIM... sayonara, Palm.
here's a lesson for the whiners: REFURBS - never buy anything new from Apple - always buy refurbs.
by the time there ARE refurbs, the price is coming down, and you get the same warranty as a shiny new one...
if you really are drinking the kool-aid and basking in the RDF, you'll smash your pretty gadget, dash it to the concrete pavement right now, and then go right out and buy TWO MORE (at the new price)...
