Are we sure that they did not reproduce the joy of the original price as well?

Research? Why bother! Cut, copy & paste is all you need.

Yeah, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was reading something that could have been published by The Onion. Anyway, just trying to bring a little sunshine to the blogosphere, boyo. Sorry for ruining your night. That photo IS old, though, and there’s considerable belief that it’s a fake story. See comments on Digg (most left after I initially published the story):

Fake or not… this guy saved himself lots of money on the purchase of an iPhone… the coma must have been a message from God to not believe the hype.

Do you guys research your stories at all? This is so obviously fake; that pic is months old.
