I know, it’s retarded. They basically matched the Amazon price. I bought an 8gb touch on Friday for $178 from Apple, and it was that identical price on Amazon. The sale is a joke. This was the first time I actually bought directly through Apple - basically because it didn’t cost me extra to do so.

These “deals” are a joke. They can be had easily with other retailers such as MacMall.
I love my Apple products, but come on! What a joke.
