The Price of iPhone

Thanks Scott: RedEye | iPhone, Therefore I Blog

For those who need another interpretation, here is the price of the iPhone, as stated up front, by AT&T and Apple:

$399 (post price reduction)
2 Year Contract with AT&T Mobility (Cingular)
Inability to load third party applications on the device

You may unlock the phone for use on another network (this is a legal mandate), but doing so will void the warranty. Apple and AT&T will not be responsible for the effects thereof.

So, in summary, if you bought an iPhone, this is the price you agreed to pay, up front. You can’t re-negotiate after you get it home and use it for a little while.

Another example: Doctor Brown certainly voided the warranty on his De Lorean DMC-12 when he installed the Flux Capacitor. I seriously doubt that De Lorean could be held responsible for the mechanical problems he faced in 1885.

So, stop suing already.

Courts: Throw this scrap out.
