Nokia cdma phones have not been selling well; they have had lots of problems. The carriers generally sell phones below their cost in order to get subscribers. Expense to the retail consumer is also affected by the subsidy from the handset manufacturer. Accordingly, it was probably Nokia offering greater subsidies to AirTouch in order to move Nokia phones. Qualcomm does not have to offer as high subsidies because Qcom is capacity constrained and can sell every phone it makes and Qcom has the reputation for the best phones.
