The Apple iPhone is going global and increasing number of carriers are seeing this as a cash cow. Getting iPhone on board attracts a lot of new customers and thats a gold mine for any carrier. AT&T has made a killer on the iPhone and it seems that telecom operators across the globe are happy with the smartphone boom.
iPhone’s official carrier in Canada ‘Rogers’ has managed to sell 255k iPhones since July, and in the process has bagged 191k new customers! The magic of iPhone certainly works for these carriers. Not only do they get new subscribers, they even get more revenues due to the iPhone premium.
