Just as Apple and O2 are about to announce ‘stuff’ today about the impending launch of the iPhone in Europe, US TV pundit, Bill Maher, took an amusing sideswipe at those iPhone early adopters who have been moaning about Apple’s sudden price cut.

We covered the price cut here and, from the comments, you may notice that they weren’t really all that angry about been stiffed for $200 extra. Go figure. In the piece above, among other topics, Maher said:

“Stop bitching that Apple cut the price on the iPhone. Early adopters always pay a premium. “Early adopters” being a business term meaning dipshits who stand in line for 6 hours for a freaking phone. It’s not a price cut, it’s a repeal on the nerd tax.”
