LOL, reminds me of people who ran out and bought LED watches when the first came out. For the kiddies here, those were watches that had the numbers "light up" in red only when you pushed a button.
people were paying up to $250 for these things, a year later when the LCD watches came out you could get one for free with a fill-up or a car wash.
How about when I paid $1300 for a 486SX-50 computer back in 1990 something? should I get a rebate? Is the company that sold it to me evil because the computer went down in value quickly?
I remember driving all the way to the city of industry to buy a 4 meg strick of RAM for that computer for $180! that was so cheap, everyone else was getting $50 a meg for ram.
IIRC I paid about $5 to see "the empire strikes back" in the theatre. Several years later I saw the same show on TV, for free! Imagine my dismay at realizing I was ripped off by the theatre.
No, the only blame falls on the types who had to be the very first ones on the block to have something new and then act surprised later on because the price fell.
When new technology comes out resist the hype and wait. the price will fall, it always does.
or pay the inflated prices and accept it.
