Conventional wisdom says that the usual subsidy for a smartphone like this - i.e., what Research in Motion (RIMM) gets for the BlackBerry - is about $200 per phone. In other words, carriers pay RIM about $399 for phones that sell for $199.
The consensus among Apple analysts is that Cupertino is getting a good bit more than that.
