Remember the name of this thread?
Maybe its just the right phone for you and then I'm happy for you. But some people evaluate their choices out of more criterias than that.
Besides, its not really an argument that many people already has bought an overpriced product (sadly enough, the fruit company is a perfect example). I think its better to buy something for the right reasons, not because so many others happens to do that.
But maybe that's whats most important for many people today? Identifying oneself with others and blending in. "Look, I can also afford one, I'm just like you." Such stupidity and low self esteem makes me kind of sick actually. Maybe I'm oversimplifying things, but I'm pretty sure that I'm not totally wrong on this point.
