Remember yesterday we told you that if you’re a recent iPhone customer, you’re due for a refund? That left a lot of people outside of the 14-day return window pissed off. Those people wrote emails to Steve Jobs, and he read them. And he feels for you. So he’s making Apple do something fairly unique for those of you who feel spurned: Apple will offer all iPhone customers a one-time $100 store credit to either the Apple store or to AT&T.
This is a fantastic move by his Steveness, and almost unprecedented. While the price did drop $200, those users have had their iPhones now for a couple of months (at least most have), so it’s more than fair. Kudos to Mr. Jobs for this idea. While many will think it’s still unfair, don’t forget that they didn’t have to do anything at all, Apple’s doing this because it can.
To all iPhone customers: [Apple Hot News]
Wow. His Steveness has just reminded everyone why Apple is the God-king of all Companies for all time.
First of all, I’ve never been a big Apple fan. I think Microsoft rocks and Bill Gates is the man.
Second of all, the iPhone was way too awesome to pass up and I bought one a week after it came out.
When I heard about the price reduction, it was a little disheartening- and it sort of confirmed my original distaste for Apple. But with this announcement I must say I’m pleasantly surprised.
Steve, thanks for not being a prick. We all know you didnt have to give us anything. But you did. And that’s pretty cool. Maybe I do like Apple afterall.
anybody who thinks microsoft rocks is a born loser. enjoy your zune.
