Note to Steve Jobs: NO APOLOGIES NEEDED!

First of all, I commend Apple CEO Steve Jobs for wanting to do what he feels is the right thing, by offering $100 to iPhone owners who bought the product in late June, before last week's price cuts.

Other than this, I feel that Jobs owes no one an apology. After all, Mr. Jobs didn't put a gun to the throngs of people who wanted to be first to get the iPhone, which is indeed a breakthrough product. The $599 price for the 8GB model was the right price at the time, and the price cuts last week was the right decision made by Apple and AT&T.

To those folks who wanted to be 'the first in line': it's your damn fault! It's this 'me first' attitude of yours that caused your gripe. It's your wanting to be the first in line that caused you to be dissatisfied with what Steve Jobs' decision. That dissatisfaction brought on by, not Mr. Jobs, but the early buyers themselves. You buyers did this to yourselves. DEAL WITH IT!
