    This. Fuck, so much this. I can't wait until I no longer have to deal with, "BUT PHONES ONLY COST $200!!! WHY ARE YOU JACKING UP THE PRICES?!?! SPRINT TRYING TO GOUGE US!!!!" -sigh-

    Correct, when a provider sells you a phone outright for $600, that's how much those providers paid for that phone. They make absolutely zero on the phones themselves.

    You've always been paying for your phone. Before now providers were just building it into your plan where you weren't seeing it. The difference now though is (if on sprint T-Mobile and Verizon Edge) you plan goes down when you pay the phone off where as before it didn't. That was the whole...

    Eh, for more people I think it's pretty okay. I can see why some would want more but your avg. joe is going to decide if they love it or hate it fairly quickly.

    Most providers only offer 14 days from point of sale these days. Still, thats a decent window to try something.

    I don't necessarily disagree with your post, my only point was this was the direction they choose to go and they were fine with it. That was the whole thing that started this retarded escalation. And no, the margins are most likely not as good however when they sell millions more of them than...

    Too many phones to go and find out but almost 3 years ago Nokia switched gears to basic phones because their basic phones generated much better operating profits than its smartphone line-up. That's not the only reason their smart phone market share is down (Brutal is right that Windows does...

    Last? You realize they still make a limited amount of Android phones right? And when they look at their global share of the phone market, they are good with it. Do you think Volkswagen is pissy because on best selling cards of all time they are 3rd and 4th on that list with models? No, they...

    They can't, if they are open for one carrier they have to be open for all. Also they wouldn't be able to do that without shutting their own phones out. I'm telling you Strait up, it won't happen. You'd see them bad big carriers from their towers before smaller ones that pay them.

    Trust me, I pay attention. Obviously they would want to move more smart phones and are trending down a bit but they are still making money hand over fist and are fine.

    And that will never go away, thus isn't not an issue. If being able to use those towers was detrimental to those carriers do you really think they could sell plans at half the price as those that own the towers? sharing network towers is something that will never go away. Networks simply...

    Been with my job almost a year and I was just wanting it to be resume fodder. New company just bought out mine and I'd be forced to take a paycut. They take over on the first, I've already had feelers out when i heard the rumors a month ago so I'm not totally unprepared but new job incoming.
