Re:Hope you reserved your iPad. Apple just ran out. by maxharris on Saturday March 27, 2010 @07:08PM (#1223861)
No. Just think about how hard it is to actually manage the task of production - to get things right and not end up with a bunch of defective or badly designed hardware that gets returned. So you see how scarcity is unavoidable (basic economics), and artificial scarcity is a bad business model (basic economics again: Apple would gladly make more money faster if they could!)
