Apple Says Free Phones Suck! Stephen Fung March 2, 2007 Apple had some strong words for all the other phone makers out there calling everyone elses phones worthless.

That’s what it’s worth,” Apple Chief Operating Officer Timothy Cook said yesterday at a conference in Las Vegas. Some wireless providers win customers by offering phones that lack the latest features free with service contracts. Source: Bloomberg Share This With The World!
