Actually, most Apple stores waive the restock fee for items in the firs 14 days. In the case of the iPhone they seem to be enforcing it and I can think of one REALLY good reason for this:

Ebay

Every major gadget launch in the last couple of years has been plagued by speculators buying as many units as possible to make a quick buck. From Apple's point of view why should they give someone a risk-free approach to make money re-selling their products?

And I've gotta say, I don't understand why someone would be returning an iPhone for reasons of cash (or lack thereof). The price has been available for months, the monthly tariffs were known in advance, if you don't think you can afford the latest shiny gadget then DON"T BUY IT!
