Thats a great idea. I would not mind sending microsoft some information on my purchase and get a rebate check or something. That would be nice but I doubt it will happen.
Why would they do that. They've had that model out for years so why would you consider yourself early adopters. Do you think you should be reimbursed every time somethings price drops.
That makes no sense. Price drops occur to move sales, yeah, but it's helped by the falling price of production and components.
Apple reimbursed early adopters because it was a dick-ass move to drop the price after only a couple of months. Meaning, they probably could've afforded to sell the iPhone at the lower price to begin with. Production costs don't fall that much in two months and I doubt they were selling at a loss when they did.

If only Microsoft could go the Apple route and give early adopters (at least those who paid $349) some type of reimbursement.

Why? It's been nearly a year since the $349 price point was initiated. iPhone's original price only lasted a couple months.

YEAH!!
I'm still waiting to hear back about my 2006 car purchase! Can you believe they came out with a 2007 and 2008 model?
Hold your breath until I say stop.
