iPhone Price Cuts Anger Early Adopters
There was a time when early adopters understood that there was a price to be paid for their coolness. Today however, they flip out when something that they just bought suddenly becomes much less expensive.
Sharp Corp. of Japan introduced the first transistorized calculator, the SHARP CS-10A in the mid 60’s. It cost around $2500. I have lost my receipt, but given the fact that you can get either a scientific or business calculator for well under $15, I think I want some money from somebody.
The price of an iPhone has dropped $200. Steve Jobs is sorry. Early adopters are going to get some money back. (Edit: they get a credit, NOT cash)
