Whenever I am tempted to buy some new and cool high-end electronic product, I ask myself, "Since this thing will probably cost half as much a year from now, do I really need to own it right now?" The answer is almost always "No."

(Of course, that new iPod Touch is--SLAP! Bad consumer! No retirement fund!)

Ha! So true. And it makes even less sense to buy software right now when the same content will be cheaper within months -- DVDs that you know are going to end up in a box set, single-player video games, even hardback books.
