The Apple iPhone can only be used with AT&T cellular service. Is this unfair? Should the iPhone be able to work with other providers as well?

Arguments For

Yes, it is unfair. The lack of competition drives up the cost of cellular service.

No, it is fair. Apple can select it's official provider and consumers can always use a different cell phone instead.
