Re: Increased ETF justified; bogus $1.99 data fees not



EVERY device can be taken apart and have every core part analyzed and priced. It is done for the major consoles, it has been done on several phones and it will continue to be done.

You have no idea: absolutely no idea the exact or even estimate total cost to bring a device like this to market. To claim you do is ridiculous. You can't know all the intricacies involved unless you're a part of the team bringing it to market.

It costs money to pay people to tell you how to integrate everything you pick apart into a finished device. There's shipping, there's supporting the device. There is so much more to it than your narrowminded view of what it costs to make.

Do you really think the cost of the iPhone is the cost of its parts alone? Really?

Even if you did know the exact cost per unit, which you don't, a publicly traded company has every right to profit off their work. It's how they make better stuff down the line.
