Apple Legend Woz Blasts iPhone Price Drop
Stony Stevenson writes "Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak Saturday blasted Steve Jobs' decision to drop the price of the iPhone by $200 just two months after the product was launched. Said Woz: 'Everyone expects technology to drop in price. The first adopters always pay a premium. I am one of them. I am used to that. But that one was too soon, too harsh ... A lot of people from Apple, even a lot of people that worked on the Apple Lisa and Macintosh computers in the beginning now work at Google. The thinking over at Google is very much like early Apple days. The fact that they give people time off to work on their own ideas is exactly matches some of the things that made Apple great. I wish Apple did that.'" We just discussed the price drop last night.
I love the BMW 3 series, because it is an engineering marvel, at any cost, and would never buy it as a status-symbol. I would buy it because it is a GREAT car and I could care less what the rest of you think.
You should check out the Infinity G35 (or it might just be G now). At least when I looked a couple years ago they had better performance and were less expensive than the 330. Now, a friend of mine used to have an M5. All I can say is wow! Talk about an amazing piece of machinery.
actually I'm considering the lexis is 350 to replace my aging contour act. I'll look into the infinity though
