wow, thats an impressive amount of mysterious sources, mysterious legal experts and mysterious industry analysts.

Not to mention the link bait headline "REVEALED" and a major +1 for the other link to another link bait headline about iPhone 5C orders being cut ("Apple slams brakes"). Maybe someday "industry experts" will get tired of being proven wrong and stop trying to predict results from supply chain - they've never been right before.

Aww, the poor carriers.

Forget the carriers, it's the customers who are getting screwed....

Totally unrelated to this topic...

Do you know why your submissions are all marked [dead]? Mine started to do that a couple of days ago and I'm trying to figure out why. Looking at your submission history it looks like it is permanent for you.

Really? That's a bit unnerving, and I can't understand why. It would certainly account for a lack of traction, and the fact that the same stuff gets submitted later and attracts comments....

So to answer your question: I didn't know and I have no idea.

Just looking at your submissions, they are not marked Dead as far as I can see.... http://imgur.com/na2DuiK

yup, all those carriers who have consistently reported major growth in subscribers and revenues due to having the iPhone
