CORPORATE GREED.....and the consumer.

[mr.hidef]

It just goes to show you HOW GREEDY CORPORATIONS ARE, when it comes to money making:

1) They hook you in with mass marketing

2) They tell you what you should be buying and when, then dangle it in front of you.....for weeks, and weeks...only to PUSH back the release dates (because the product wasn't street ready in the first place!)

3) Then, forums like this discuss the products (in anticipation for months)....Until they realize, that they can charge you any price that they want, because they know you "Have to have one" (brainwashing)?

4) Then the problems occur, so they issue a quick fix (firmware upgrade). OVER, and OVER, and OVER, again....

5) Then....Just when you are FINALLY contempt with your purchase.....Uh......Umm......OH!? a "NEW MODEL" comes out!!!!

Don't get me wrong folks, I love my beautiful electronics (sooo shiny!), but I must admit that this GETS ME EVERY TIME!!!.......

Thoughts anyone? (please post here)
