My thoughts going in was this was a very innovative produce but still had kinks to work out, especially the pricing ATT plan. But phase out of the 4gig one and the price break was unexpected. I don't hear people complaining as much about Windows and the lousy product it is. So I am not sure what they are whining about. But Jobs gave them a break. I don't see Gates giving Windows a break.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (Sept. 6) - Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs apologized and offered $100 credits Thursday to customers who shelled out $599 for the most advanced model of the iPhone, only to have the company unexpectedly slash the price $200 in a push to boost holiday sales.
Customers who bought an iPhone within 14 days of the price cut can get a refund of the price difference if they have the original receipt.
The price cut - and the phaseout of the 4-gigabyte iPhone, which retailed for $499 - came less than 10 weeks after the two products hit the market June 29, angering early iPhone adopters who were startled to have their prized gadgets plummet in value.

from another person:
"Two of my friends who bought within the last 14 days returned their phones today, repurchased the same phone and got their $200 back each per apple's 14 day return policy. I've always been an early technology adopter- and never got screwed this bad."
