Re: Cost of doing business

If you simply picked it and did no research, well, there's another term that applies: Let the buyer beware.
Great point.

Obviously the iPhone has been around a while (with substantial amounts of reviews, opinions and facts littered around the Net), so there is a certain amount of onus on the part of the consumer to 'do their homework' and filter out any misleading hype. Something I would think a life-seasoned 70 year old would be capable of doing.

However small the windfall may be for him if this suit succeeds, I'm sure he only had the best interests of other consumers at heart.

He'd be limited to his damages (cost of phone + exit contract) unless it's class action. If it goes class action, the only ones who make windfalls are the lawyers. The consumers get a pittance back if that. (Sometime it's a coupon for a discount or some useless crap.)
