    Well funny, because now Apple is actually the biggest loser. Serves them right, I wonder if this will cause them to lower prices.

    Sorry forgot to post the link:

    Here some more info, I can't imagine that Apple and others won't lower prices to get rid of inventory and not to lose too much revenue and profits.

    Don't expect too much. Lower prices sets a bad precedent for later. They'll probably write them off as a loss and sell them cheap in a poverty stricken country to create an emerging market.
