GODDAM!!!
Perhaps Unlockers/Jailbreakers should sue Apple for some of those profits. The Unlockers/Jailbreakers surely drive up sales for iphones and ipads and ipod touches. I, for one, would not be using my 5th iphone if there was no jailbreak and I wouldn't have gotten my first 3 iphones if there was no jailbreak/unlock because I was on tmobile at the time. Although 1 of those 3 came from ebay so apple did not profit. I think there's a point in there somewhere.

No they keep it in between pages of books but primarily under their mattress.
