:There is plenty of competition. But one result of ending exclusivity deals would be everyone paying full price for cell phones. And the ones that would hurt the most are those users who can least afford to buy cell phones up front.
Could you elaborate on that more please? When the blackberry and the razr broke exclusivity, they still had a subsidy, discounted price.
The same advocates are also proposing that cell service providers NOT be allowed to subsidize cell phone purchases by tying the purchase to cell service contracts.
