It's about fairness and consistent charging, plain and simple.
It was a competition/special draw/promotion/whatever. I'd be miffed if I'd won something and then asked to pay to receive it!

I don't get the jealousy issue, seems fair to me. besides, as indicated by VM rep in an email to media boy(?) the few who had it early were effectively beta testing and so put up with features not working properly etc.
