- mrtron 18y agoYou don't buy any cable box and hook it up and have it magically work. You don't buy any computer and easily throw any OS on it (drivers, etc). Specifically cell phone companies like to make money on the back end and offer up cheap cell phones to people willing to sign contracts. It is because most people would be willing to sign themselves into a crappy 3 year contract and pay 50$ for a phone rather than pay 500$ for the phone. Blame the consumers not the customer.
