DISQUS

Noooo!, subsidising the handset would be bad! at the moment I can walk into a shop and leave with an iPhone without a contract, jailbreak it, unlock it and use it with almost any SIM card I want!

I quite like that freedom.

Nahhh we want the masses to adopt the iPhone, don't we?

I don't think there's been any suggestion that option will be going away - just that the networks will additionally be able to offer subsidised prices with new contract sales...

I think what we want is for the iPhone to do so well, Nokia realises that it must spend time and money getting its wonderful wizardry available via single click/point type and click style interfaces. When the big boys realise that the standard competative model rewards fully usable functions, then we will move into the post normob era.
