iPhone buyers’ remorse: don’t say we didn’t warn ya

By Steve Safran 

When the iPhone was first announced back in January, I wrote why I wouldn’t be getting one straight away. I had learned – Apple punishes early adopters. You read here at LR eight months ago. I didn’t foresee the remarkably (and suspiciously) quick price drop, but I did get my way with this wishy-washy request on behalf of early adopters: “We should get upgrade discounts or trade-in rebates or something.” So no regrets out of being gouged that extra $200, anyone. Your pals at One LR tried to talk you down.
