do you remember saying this?


ya, i didnt think so.



iphone and right mind are direct contradictions. oxyMORONS if you will.

I do remember saying that. Guess you didn't see the article that carriers are losing money from iPhone subsidies, so if you ask me T-mobile is playing it smart. They're refarming the network which is cheaper than paying to have the iPhone or any other GSM phone subsidized. Not only the refarm allows for use of any GSM phone but it also expands coverage and increases capacity which is already beyond that of sprint. T-mobile isn't the only carrier without the iPhone USCC rejected it. Probably because they know that they'd lose money if they offered it subsidized.
