As I expected, people who paid $599 for an iPhone are pissed off that the price has been cut by $200. The new price, $400, is roughly HK$3,200 (same as the iTouch). I wonder if that Wanchai security guard still feels his iPhone was worth the HK$12,000 he paid?

The above-linked article also mentions that Apple is dumping remaining stock on the 4 gig iPhones for $299.

In the idiotic battle between NBC/Universal and Apple, Universal has announced that the upcoming NBC TV shows will be available on Amazon’s new digital store. Question 1 – what will the pricing be? Question 2 – enough with this anti-consumer bullshit of heavily DRM-ed material only available through single outlets. Oops, that’s not a question.
