Let’s face facts — iPhone developers don’t drop their prices for a day or two to celebrate anything. They do it to get coverage on Mac news sites and to artificially boost their sales numbers to, hopefully, achieve a top ranking on the App Store.

Not that I’m saying you shouldn’t take advantage of a $3 app that’s now $1 or anything, rather that we need to stop lying to ourselves.

Also: I have neither an iPod Touch nor an iPhone, so none of this melodrama affects me directly.
