More 8-bit Ninjas, because I haven’t gotten them worked out of my system, and bitter-sweet news for you apple yackers on the go.
Hello, Jet Set Stars. It’s Wednesday, September 5th. I’m not a mac lover, damn it!
Apple just announced that, in order to properly take over the world, they will be cutting the price on their 8 GB iPhone model by $200. No more than 10 weeks after launch, this’ll be almost a 50% sudden price cut. People promptly soiled their trousers, and a few second-world nations toppled.
Apple isn’t known for cutting prices. Instead, they just release something new at a similar price. But, Apple has also never made a cell phone before. The iPhone has been a highly sought item since it first hit the public ear, and hasn’t let up. People sometimes forget they’re actually buying a cell phone, and not an iPod. The markets are vastly different, forcing the company to approach matters a little differently.
