Why is anyone surprised?
Apple does this all the time with its products, but not nearly as dramatically. The best time to get an Apple product isn't right when it comes out, but right after the first upgrade (usually 3-6 months after it comes out). At that point, the price is the same, but you get more for your money.
Also, don't most cellphones decrease in price after a few months? Remember how expensive the Razr was?
