GSM infrastructure is expensive and constantly expanding. You also need to
take into consideration that the handset subsidy on a contract phone is a
function of the call costs as well.

In other words, TWIT, YOUR HANDSET SUBSIDY IS PARTIALLY PAID THROUGH YOUR
CALL COSTS.

Sheesh.

Why do you think a $ 10 plan has more expensive call costs than a $ 100
plan?
