Ask HN: Apple is featuring one of my apps. Should I drop the price to $0.99?

Apple has posted a review of one of my apps in the App Store's official Facebook page. Its price is $2.99 and it's currently ranking 27th on iPhone and 16th on iPad in its category (News).

I'm thinking in lowering the price to $0.99 for the weekend, but I see both upsides and downsides:

Upsides: - More sales - More exposure, since it will climb the rankings higher

Downsides: - I might make less money - Some users who bought the app might be annoyed when they see I dropped to price to $0.99 just after they bought it (this one specially worries me)

So, dear HN, what would you do?
