I'd bet that Apple sees it as a loss leader for something else.
That means expensive product or lesser profit margin. I dont think Apple wnt either
It's not free for Apple and it's likely cutting into their margin, hence the theory that they priced it in.
No idea why is Apple being greedy here. They have enough money and there are going to be buyers out there, who are going to have other intentions, which could become much more expensive for Apple. Save a cent to lose dollar kind of situation.
I'm sure Apple csn afford it within their hardware sales margins.
I bet Apple prefers to sell $649 phones over $229 iPods.
There are absolutely 0 apple products that offer enough incremental value over previous versions in the world where ppl actually start watching their costs
Sounds like Apple. For a premium price they give you only bare minimum and if you want anything more you can pay thousands of dollars in pure premium and profit for Apple.Of course sheep will keep buying these things.
Yes, but obviously Apple think it will be cheaper for them in the long run, over wise they would not have done it.
but it's Apple, so they don't really lower the price
