U know..I like calling it the iTouch...sounds....kinky and dirty.....LOL
im sure Jobs thought about calling it the iTouch and then realized that there may be some uptight parents complaining that it wasnt a good image to send to the kids...

or that there may already be a sex toy called iTouch... whatever explanation you like better.

Hmmm...a sex toy called iTouch....sounds more like interactive porn for some reason....

One of these days I'll join the technological age lol

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?

I think that if you were dumb enough to run right out and WAIT IN LINE to buy the stupid thing, I'm glad Apple has your extra $200. I think they're stupid for issuing refunds. It's a gamble you take when you HAVE to have the latest technology RIGHT NOW.

Most technology PERIOD drops in price a few months after it comes out....look how many people are kicking themselves after getting the PS3 only to have sony

1. discontinue one of the PS3 models
2. Drop the price, but you don't hear about them offering refunds...if you bought it when it first came out and all of a sudden the price drops a few months later...so sad too bad.

Heck I got an HD DVD player about a month before the price dropped on it but because I got a good deal on the movies I bought along with it...o well...sometimes you win sometimes you lose.

Most people 'have to have' some things first just to say they got it....that is the price of buying new tech. Also don't be too surprised when an upgraded version of the iPhone comes out in less than a year.....and don't come begging for more money then because you knew what you were getting!
