Re: Let's look at the 4 points 1 by 1

iPhone discount is about 600 dollars. So would you be comfortable with a 600 dollar ETF?

I bet Apple wouldn't be selling many iPhones if ATT didn't agree to subsidize it. And ATT took a massive hit on the first generation iPhones so I doubt any others will do a deal like that again. If they do, they deserve to go out of business.

Phone makers will need to see how they will market themselves to service providers and customer alike.

If that's what the actual discount is, then sure, it makes perfect sense.

I hope that if something like this passes we move beyond the stupid discounted phone model. I'd rather get a monthly service discount for signing a contract as is common in other industries.

Quote your "reliable" source because your figure is no where near what I have seen.

As a matter of fact I will even go so far to state that Apple could sell the phone outright for $600 and make a very handsome profit on every single one.
