@cmsj @pt yes. You had to have a contract. But there was no subsidy. AT&T was dumb, but they weren’t stupid. They insisted on lock-in to MRR with SIM locks - they had to provide the SIM for access.

I don’t know why everybody cites this example all the time. Balmer was right. Apple got the iPhone pricing wrong, couldn’t sell enough at $600 and moved to a carrier-subsidy model. You don’t have to agree with Zuck on VR, but this will have to get cheaper to get wide adoption.

It is uncanny how similar Zuckerberg's comments are to Steve Ballmer on the iPhone. Ballmer laughed because iPhone was too expensive and he liked Nokia's low cost strategy. He mentioned sales too. Zuckerberg made the same exact points only with headsets. youtube.com/watch?v=eywi0h…

@cmsj @pt $599 and no subsidy. AT&T exclusive in US because GSM (verizon and Sorint were incompatible CDMA).

@pt I'm almost certain that the first iPhone was not available off-plan. Maybe there wasn't any subsidy money going from AT&T to Apple on top of the $500 though, I don't know for sure.

My review: A much shorter read than its author would like you to believe.

I'm sure you've seen multiple posts about FFAFLD from @clevergirl & @jfraser this week. But have you seen one where the first page that flopped open was a prioritization 2x2 with stickies? Now you have. Just buy it! lnkd.in/gWSC9Mws

@pt I think I saw them at The Edge in Palo Alto on that tour. Reel Big Fish opened and blew Goldfinger away. Quite the warmup.

Hey @elonmusk, my 5yo daughter finds it maddening when Sketchpad periodically starts erasing her existing lines when she adds new ones. It’s been doing this for years. If you open source Sketchpad, I will fix it for free. Deal?

Based on conversations with managers/founders today, this feels like it’s gonna be a great week for Mercury.
