Network lock-in still a problem

critics of the iPhone always pointed out it's 2G-ness, now that that's solved, the iPhone's biggest obstacle is network exclusivity, does Apple realise they'd sale a lot more iPhones if they weren't tied to a single network?
Maybe their share of contract fees is too good, but if they want to attract business users and compete with the BlackBerry they'll have to set the iPhone free!
