Apple Extends Its Trade-In Program

Mark Wilson writes "Earlier in the month it was reveal that Apple was about to start offering gift cards as part of a trade-in program for people buying new a new iPhone. The updated program has now gone live so you can take your old Apple device, or non-Apple smartphone to an Apple store, or mail it in to receive credit. The credit can be used in store or online against the purchase of a new Apple device, and this program expansion is the latest move from Apple to try to tempt users away from other platforms. You can check online to see how much you can expect to receive for your existing phone and decide whether it's worth your while. Hint: it might not be.

I am so excited by this new and innovative scheme from Apple. It really just shows us yet again that they are at the cutting edge of technology. It is incredible that nobody has thought of this before, and just goes to show how well placed our confidence is in Tim and the team. And they are also so tolerant of minorities. And treat their workers well.
