iPhone Outrage

Huh? The $499 iPhone model that I purchased on 6/29/07 is no more. In addition, the 8 gig version has seen a $200 price reduction. How is this fair? It has only been two months.

I want some money back...or at least an Apple Store credit similar to what Apple did when they credited $200 back to Aperture owners. See this article from Think Secret.

In tandem with the 1.1 update, Apple dropped Aperture's price tag from $499 to $299 and offered owners of version 1.0 a $200 coupon for the Apple Store. Industry watchers and users alike have viewed the price cut as a maneuver to stave off competition from Adobe's forthcoming LightRoom software, a beta of which is available for Mac OS X users, and see the Apple Store coupon as a concession for early adopters who collectively appear to have been expecting more from Apple.
