It is not about using ODM's. The point that is being raised is whether Apple only pays a royalty on its costs it pays Foxconn or if it pays a royalty on the sale price to ATT. Presumably there is an apple profit/markup in there somewhere? I suppose if Foxconn sells to ATT with an apple markup included in the price then it would be the same as Apple paying the royalty on its wholesale to ATT.
