Apple Might Screw up Early ‘iPad’ Adopters. But ‘Fanbois’ Won’t Mind It Anyway !

Apple iPad is yet to make it to the Apple stores but the uproar about iPad’s success/failure/future/competitors/blah..blah isn’t appearing to stop at all.

The latest speculation surrounding iPad is Apple’s future policy regarding the pricing alteration of iPad, a couple of months after its date of release. As the history of Apple products suggest, Apple tags its glittering gizmos with a high price at the time of launch and sells on the basis on positive buzz and extravagant product quality. Soon after, it attracts the masses by cutting down the price to an affordable value. This happened with iPod, then with iPhone and now, it seems that history is about to repeat itself with iPad as well.

The rumor mill is buzzing about the iPad Price cut that Apple might be considering these days. It is not confirmed whether Apple will take the plunge(price cut) before iPad’s release or after it but tech pundits are bidding over the latter option at the moment.

Apple has had a track record of squeezing high margins at the early stage of product launch and tone down the price thereafter, to sell off its gizmos like hot cakes. The speculation is that Apple will prefer the earlier strategy only. This suggests that early iPad adopters are going to get a bad deal anyway.

So, who are going to be those poor guys who will play significant role in plausible success of iPad and will later be screwed up by Apple itself ?

“The cult of Apple Fanboi”.

Apple relishes a crazy following of guys(they’re in millions by the way) who buy whatever Apple produces, no matter what the price tag asks for. These guys love flaunting their sleek and sexy Apple gizmo within their community and don’t mind paying extra bucks for being the first to flaunt.
