Wow.

Except that nobody else screws you like Apple does.

Or did Samsung "fuck" me when they dropped the price of the 23" LCD
TV
after I'd bought mine?

Did Samsung start selling a 46" LCD TV, with theater sound package, and
built in DVD player, for less than you paid, shortly after you bought
your
TV?

No. What Apple situation is analogous to your ridiculous hypothetical?

Compare the original $500 4 GB Edge iPhone to the new $300 8 GB, 3G, GPS
iPhone.

Actually it's $199 and not $300 making your point even stronger.

Thanks. Isn't it funny how Dave/Alan/Sandman didn't correct my mistake, in
spite of how eager they usually are to call me wrong? :-D

I looked at the iTouch price by mistake.

The new iPhone even comes with a SIM removal tool!

Not so ridiculous now, is it, Jackass?
