Apple backpedals on exploiting early iPhone adopters
Take it away, Mr. Jobs:
“We have decided to offer every iPhone customer who purchased an iPhone from either Apple or AT&T, and who is not receiving a rebate or any other consideration, a $100 store credit towards the purchase of any product at an Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store. Details are still being worked out and will be posted on Apple’s website next week… We want to do the right thing for our valued iPhone customers. We apologize for disappointing some of you, and we are doing our best to live up to your high expectations of Apple.”
Nice form. (Thanks, Nic!)
Now, the question is how they’ll do it. Work bought the phone for me, so they’re the ones who are due the $100. I’m just curious if I’ll get a $100 Apple Store gift card or if the holder of the credit card will need to go into the store. Either way, my office is getting $100 worth of something from Apple! (Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, maybe?)
