The problem is that Apple's pricing is pretty static: "lowest end is this, next is that, next is that."

Doesn't matter -what- the lowest end is, they seem to always set the price in the same place.

Upshot is that dumping 16GB has a pretty high chance of effectively bringing the price of the entire line down a notch.

So this whole line of argument simply boils down to wanting a 64GB iPhone to be $100 cheaper?

(edit: downvote by all means, but I don't see any other logic at work here - anyone feel like explaining?)

Why not ? The storage upgrades have a BS price that haven't changed anyway.

Why is the price BS? It doesn't seem to inhibit sales.
