The 16 GB starting storage option is purely a business move. Apple isn't stupid.

Yeah, and people are pissed at them (a business) for making a business move. I think it's crazy. "They're just doing it to be greedy!" UHHH, yeah, the whole point of a business is to make money. The bottom line is it hasn't affected their bottom line. These same people crying out are shelling out the extra $100 and are still excited (and probably smug) about having an iPhone. Also think about all how many of these 16 GB phones are sold (to older people) and half of the storage is never used.

Spiting your customers is stupid, just ask Blockbuster. Now obviously it remains to be seen how many people actually care about the issue, but generally, screwing over your patrons isn't the right way to go.
