Did you rob someone for the cash to buy an iPhone?  

Earlier this week apple announced that 250,000 of their iPhones went to unlockers out of the 1.4 million they’ve sold so far. In an attempt to make all their buyers “authentic� Apple has decided to restrict methods of payment to just credit/debit cards and to limit each person to just two iPhones.  Natalie Kerris (an Apple spokesperson) says “Customer response to the iPhone has been off the charts, and limiting iPhone sales to two per customer helps us ensure that there are enough iPhones for people who are shopping for themselves or buying a gift.�So if you had the $399 (in cash) ready, IT’S NO GOOD.

    The whole not accepting cash situation is stupid, but this is only happening because unlockers are picking iphones up and reselling them where they are not available.
