If Apple was to sell the iPhone unlocked stand-alone the demand would sky-rocket.

Don't blame the fruit, blame the fruit store!]]>Nov 4th 2008 6:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/wsj-apples-ipod-boss-stepping-down-replacement-stuck-legal-li/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/wsj-apples-ipod-boss-stepping-down-replacement-stuck-legal-li/
In Australia there's one carrier that practically begged and grovelled publicly before Apple to let them sell the iPhone but to no avail. And this carrier has some of the most competitive plans. So Apple is quite choosy in who they allow to sell iPhones despite the competitive plans.

And unlocked iPhones are available for sale on the internet. But the prices are very exorbitant and I'm sure Apple plays a part in this.]]>Nov 4th 2008 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/wsj-apples-ipod-boss-stepping-down-replacement-stuck-legal-li/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/wsj-apples-ipod-boss-stepping-down-replacement-stuck-legal-li/http://store.apple.com/hk/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone?mco=MTE2NTQ

That's always been my thinking as well, but it's apparently not grammatically correct. I guess it's the same as saying "are" when referring to a single company (e.g. Apple are...). IMO, the grammar rules in these cases are stupid. People are made up of billions of cells, but we don't go around referring to individuals in the the plural. I don't see how organizations are different, but whatever. Some panel somewhere decided the rules for us.]]>Nov 4th 2008 10:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/wsj-apples-ipod-boss-stepping-down-replacement-stuck-legal-li/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/wsj-apples-ipod-boss-stepping-down-replacement-stuck-legal-li/
