I worked in the cellular space for about 20 years off and on before moving to other pastures. I guarantee you that maybe one in a thousand think like you.

BY FAR the average buyer that Apple targets come in two flavors.

First, the "I'm cool and all my friends are doing it" and second is the "I'm the father, I don't personally give a shit but my daughter/son wants us all to be on iMessage."
