Hmm... most subscription packages around here are of type "1000 Min, 1000 SMS, 1000 MB" or some such so B profits aren't really high.

Also pricing being competitive, there's not much difference in SMS/data/call prices outside dataplans.

That makes that claim still silly.

Fact: an iPhone in the Netherlands costs around €0 on average. You can also buy it unlocked for €750.

In Greece they have to sell iPhones unlocked, and initial average price is €699.
