MARKETING. Announce your product to be quite pricey ... get everyone moan about it and how the competitors are doing it better.
SUddenly announce a price drop. Everyone talks about, tells their friends, goes "ooooooooh thats better" and the Sony marketing machine rolls on forward.
some of you guys have posted quite offencive comments, i bet for the woman who has lost a part of her body she is grateful with such an achievemnt. Obviously its not of any value but comedy for you people sitting there with your arms intact behind your little screens. Im ashamed for you. I have an uncle who has lost his entire arm in a working accident, and to be abelt to "feel again" or be able to take control of his prosthetic limb would have been a dream.
