They never earn money on handing out a phone, they make money on the service...but they got special contracts with google for the nexus one. They will not market it because they don't need to. The nexus one is an experiment from google nothing else.

This is why you end up paying 2 ETFs.. theoretically you shouldn't be paying the Carrier ETF because carrier gave nothing (you still end up paying it though cause carriers are jerks)
