Loading ...There has been much speculation as to just how much money Apple is getting from AT&T this time around. According to Yair Reiner at Oppenhiemer, they should be getting roughly the same amount of money from the carrier. The only difference is that they're getting most of their money up-front this time.
Reiner suggests that AT&T is paying roughly $325 in subsidies on every new iPhone sold. What's more is that he also believes that Apple is receiving a $100 bonus for every new customer that signs up at one of their stores. It sounds like Apple might have thought things through a little more this time around. Now they're selling a phone that's cheaper than the original (and will thus likely sell even better) and they're getting their money up-front from AT&T. Well played.

It’s because AT&T is run by morons. I’ve been happy with the service so far but I still think their idiots. Way to go Apple!
