I understand that people will pay the higher price. I just think it's overpriced for what you get. It reminds me of the Motorola Razor that was $500 when it first debuted.

I likely paid too much for my Moto StarTAC but it was a great phone and still have it today. Cutting edge hardware always demands top price.

Everyone has to make their own choices. You choose to be responsible while other's kids would go hungry.

It is great that Apple gives us the widest choice of device than any other MFG.
