Everyone who paid $599 for the 8GB iPhone up to 14 days before the price cut is due a $100 Apple in-store credit.
Apparently Apple received hundreds of emails from iPhone buyers who were upset about the price cut. Nice move of Apple, I would say, tough luck, that’s technology for you and guess what, things [...]
