they make their money with the contract? Carriers have to give them something I guess, they probably buy them for $600

Lots of smartphones are offered for free with a very expensive mortgage plan attached to them.

Heads up-

It's also the new 8GB version, not the 16GB that's been available in the US this whole time.
