    I’ve heard part of the issue is Qualcomm’s licensing is a percentage of the devices selling cost, so putting the same cellular chip in a MacBoom Pro costs a lot more than putting it in an iPhone. If Apple can make their own chips and doesn’t have to pay that fee it becomes a lot more affordable.
