How many people would be suprised to be offered 15% less for a car they'd bought the week before? People are buying used because they want to save money or _have_ to save money, they're taking a bigger risk, etc. I don't think it's unreasonable for people to expect to pay much less. And in the computer market one if pleasantly suprised if it's not considered _useless_ in a year. That being said, I wouldn't unload my 'pad for a few hundred dollars - I'd just sell the dock and accessories and keep the pad for the rare occassions I needed to work remotely. It's worth more as an occassional toy.
