New York (NY) - A woman from Queens is filing a hefty lawsuit, claiming the price cut hurt her so much she deserves $1 million in damages.

Dongmei Li says Apple violated price discrimination laws with its significant price cut in less than three months after the product's debut.

The 8 GB iPhone launched in June at a price of around $600. Just two months later Apple decided to lop off $200. It also decided to nix a lower capacity, 4 GB model.

Apple extended an offer for a $100 credit to anyone who purchased the 8 GB phone at its additional price. The company's return policy also allowed anyone who purchased it within 14 days before the price cut to get a full refund of the $200 difference.

Li says that is not enough, though. She purchased the 4 GB model and thus did not receive any kind of refund or credit like those who bought the more expensive device. According to the lawsuit she is now unable to resell the phone for the same kind of return as those who bought the iPhone after the price cut.

Li's suit also includes AT&T, the exclusive service provider of the iPhone. Li claims the two-year contract requirement also constitutes unfair business practices.

What a waste of everyone's time. The lawyer that filed the suit and the woman should both be fined a shitload and kicked to the curb.

I don't understand how she can argue she can't resell the phone at a reasonable resale price, when she signed a contract binding her to two years of service and forbids her from selling it as a third party vendor (at least, that's what most cell phone contracts say).

Let me just say.. I hope she wins.

I will be sueing ALOT of fucking companies for ALOT of items I purchased.. only to see the price go down later on.

And Lawyers wonder why we believe them to be the bottom scum in the pond of life.

Then there's the douche suing over the battery life, too, as if he's never, ever used a product with a rechargeable battery before.

Of course, if they keep these retarded lawsuits coming fast and furious, at least they won't have to worry about prices coming down on products any further.

There was a Penthouse or Hustler that came out like a year ago that had to guide telling women how to be a good wife. It was hilarious, and if I wasn't unsing a military computer I would find it and post it up here. But one of you should.....

You would know that.

I haven't looked at a hustler since I was in the USMC.... oh wait.
