and they made a pile of money off them. the margin on iphones is still reputed to be pretty high even at the new 400$ cost.

I suspect these numbers were announced more to reassure carriers than anything else. While at&t did lose some sales to unlockers the numbers weren't really that large.

I do agree though that these were found sales. The vaast majority of those customers would not have bought a phone at all if they couldn't unlock it.
