anyone going to try to get thier $100 refund?



"After protests over its decision to cut the price of the iPhone by $200, Apple will give iPhone users a $100 store credit. "

u gotta be the first to own it then you gotta pay to play get over it.

Only a douche bag doesn't realize that electronics prices always drop like a rock. How many people have bought computers only to realize 2 weeks later it is outdated and 1/2 the price they paid?

Exactly!



Apple is being more than generous. Any other company would laugh and say "Sucker!"

its only covers people who bought it in the last 2 weeks or some ****, not from day 1

j9fd3s 09-09-2007 11:59 AM

my brother was pissed!

phinsup 09-09-2007 06:28 PM

it wouldn't really bother me, u can pretty much bet being the first in you are going to pay more then the rest and that covers more then just tech stuff. we were the first in the area to have the new body style mustangs and they werent willing to deal on them as they had only one or two, now I bet they haggle all over the place. Same with the rx-8's. I've found when i buy something i prepare myself to pay the price and if it drops later.. **** it, i was happy with it at 500 bucks, so who cares and if you were unhappy with it at 500 you should have bitched then.

we've already had this discussion, if it were a "phone" it would have buttons with numbers on the front

j9fd3s 09-10-2007 02:22 PM

its a really nice coaster too

Rob x-7 09-10-2007 02:42 PM

its just ******* conversation thats all



I can see the price of something dropping later on, but a few weeks after it came out?



I can see with cars dealers not coming down on price or even selling it over list price.



Toyota had similiar problems right before they stopped selling the Supra, they dropped the price radically and whoever had just bought a Supra or had one already seen the value plummet over night.



Odd how much Supras are worth now when back when they were new you could not give them away.

i was referring to the argument over whether it was "just" a phone, not the droping of the price.

Electric 09-21-2007 11:37 AM

That sounds pretty lame, but everybody does that with everything electronic...at least its not as bad as microsoft they release the xbox 360 which is a broken ass piece of **** then they release a way better system upgrade for almost the same price as you payed before..

no that's the same thing apple does. when you buy a first production anything you're pretty much a beta tester.

Haha. Microsoft has been doing the same thing with every windoze release since the beginning of time. But ask yourself, would you have handed over your hard-earned cash if the called it "xbox 360 Beta?"



You'd think by now microsoft customers would appreciate the fact that buyers of the first generation of any of their stuff are paying for the privilege of working the bugs out of a poorly executed product.

Electric 09-21-2007 03:22 PM

Well dude my point is look at they're competition...PS3 I havent heard of one breaking yet and I know people who play the **** out of it...Ninendo Wii isnt as popular but it lasts just as well also....Theres no way in hell I would have spend 550 bucks if knew it would suck balls and break every couple months...infact I regret spending that money...Even so if it was in early model, they still break brand new now...and the new system they released not too long ago breaks just as much also...pretty much its just shoddy parts and rushed deadlines.

phinsup 09-21-2007 03:32 PM

There's only 17 people with the ps3, seriously there is 5 times more xbox's on the market then the ps3, so for every 1 ps3 that breaks 5 360's could break and still be on the same reject rate. Nintendo wii isn't as popular as ps3? What rock have you been hiding under? wii's been outselling ps3 2 to 1, i think maybe you've been reading sony's blog too much.




Here's NPD's tally of total U.S. installed base among the three next-generation consoles, the tally of cumulative unit sales since launch. The Xbox 360 was launched in November 2005, the Wii and the PlayStation 3 in November 2006.



Xbox 360: 5.6 million

Nintendo Wii: 2.8 million

PlayStation 3: 1.4 million

Leetheslacker 09-23-2007 04:50 AM

who ******* cares



im not spending that much on any of them



but i dont mind playing my friends' consoles.



my roommate has a 360, so ive been playing the **** out of forza.

Electric 09-23-2007 08:00 PM

Around here is what I'm goin by, I dont pay attention to any of the statistics or anything.

PS I'm an X360 and PS2 owner.



But really were stealing this thread...back to I-Phone.
