Want an iPhone, Apple just slashed the price by $200.00
 
Which gives even more credence to my earlier position that "since Apple has no serious competition, it has to create it amongst its own products" Not really the greatest position to be in.

Release a new iPod, reduce the cost of the iPhone...

In iPhone news, Jobs said Apple will discontinue one of the two models sold since late June. The remaining version, with 8 gigabytes of storage, will now sell for $399, or $200 less than before.

For customers who purchased the phone at the introductory price. Not for the new one. Did you read the link? ;)

I have Platinum too. It's great, I highly recommend it.
A new perk is that it will let you into any AA Admirals Club for free with the card. A lot of other stuff too.
But anyways, Apple's stock fell becuase of the lower price announcement. It was around 145 on Wednesday morning and it went down to 133 today.
