i just sent this email to sjobs@mac.com and sjobs@pixar.com.
i seriously doubt he'll even see it, but maybe if we all flood his email with complaints, he might have to make good on his wrong. it's worth the minute it will take you to write it and it just MIGHT make a difference.
I for one, know the penalty of early adoption, but a HUGE price break in just 2 months! ridiculous. mark my word, come end of september or at least by xmas, 16gb iPhone for $499.
here's the email i sent:
"i have been an Apple customer for 25 years, preferring the mac OS over windows any day of the week.
when the first mac came out, bought it.
when the powerbook came out, bought it.
when the imac came out, bought it.
when the g3 came out, bought it.
when the g4 came out, bought it.
when the g5 came out, bought it.
when the ipod came out bought it.
WHEN THE iPhone CAME OUT, STOOD IN LINE FOR 8 HOURS, BOUGHT IT.
2 months later you reduce the price by $200. 2 MONTHS!
way to completely screw over the Apple faithful.
you need to make good on this immediately! maybe a $200 gift certificate to iTunes store, or something. i don't know. i'm sure you can come up with something as innovative as you are.
i never considered another company for my future computing needs but boy am i now.
thanks so much steve.
