Is there an app for calculating how much apple is raping you out of your money each year?

I hope your happiness does not come from an iPhone.

How is Apple milking people? It is well known Apple updates their products at least once a year. iPhone will be updated in June, iPod's in the fall, etc. Updating the iPhone is like updating their computers. Have to update them in order to remain competitive.

3GS? I bet Apple will come out with a new phone next year. Call it iPhone 3G Type-R or some shit.

Will it have V-Tech?

Joonsup · 06-10-2009, 02:57 PM

How much is the upgrade fee? If one were to get one and they are not eligible for upgrade, how much would they pay on top of the $199/$299 price of the phone?

GreenThree · 06-10-2009, 02:57 PM

Has alot of cool features. Not sure I would use all of them. But damn, apple creates quite a market for these products with all the build-up and anticipation...

bmwturbopower · 06-10-2009, 03:26 PM

just upgraded from my 1st gen to 16gb 3GS. Can't wait to go pick it up. My little 8gb has been through many years of dropping.

However, they have the one year upgrade price which is $399 (16GB) $499 (32GB).

Yeah I think i'll hvae to settle for the new 3.0 update till my contract expires feb of 2011.

new game, same old tricks from apple.

taliesen · 06-10-2009, 03:54 PM

Now that the 3GS is out, I can finally get the 3G at a normal price . . . so I'll be a generation behind, oh well . . . have had my current phone for 5 years anyway : )

My first computer was an Apple IIe

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_IIe

I also had the hard drive 5mb

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_ProFile

I didn't pay anywhere near that much as they show on the wiki page though.

I also had a 300 baud modem and now I bitch and moan when I can't download a movie over my PHONE! Now I feel old....

But check the stats compared to the iPhone, it's like Star Trek stuff compared to that.
