$30? Why bother? Apple is going to have to do much better than this with all the new Android tablets coming out.

lol @ people whining "not enough discount"

you really would pay $40-50 extra just for a pretty cardboard box? :eek:

If you put a new and refurb unit next to each other you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

When a refurbished unit is sold, does that count towards the "total sales" figures that get cited?

If so, then aren't refurbs getting double counted, once when it is sold new the first time, and again when it gets sold refurbished the second time?

My impression is that Apple sells a LOT of refurbs.
