Oh please, I'm surprised you didn't suggest legislation to prevent this
sort of atrocity.  This is America, remember, free enterprise and all
that.  Apple can do what ever they like with their prices just as you
can do whatever you like with regards to what you buy.  If you don't like
the price don't buy it.  If enough people feel the same way it will hurt
Apple and they will reconsider their pricing strategy.  Apple (like most
companies) is in business to make money, not to be your buddy.

Now I don't like to see prices go up either, but hey that's life.  Nobody's
twisting my arm to buy any of this stuff.  Apple is within its rights to
up the price and I am within mine not to buy.  It all comes down to is it
worth it to pay the price.  It makes no difference how much it costs to
build something, only whether the satisfaction you gain from it is worth
the price you pay.  Looking at it any other way only annoys me so I don't.
