"It seems that the disagreement is over the percentage model that Motorola wants. Motorola wants 2.25% of the full retail price of the device. So, if you make a dumbphone for $35, you pay 79cents. If you make a 16GB iPhone 5, you pay $14.63. Somewhat ridiculously, if you make a 64GB iPhone 5, you'd pay $19.13."
There is a simple solution: Sell iPhones w/ little memory and sell the memory separately. Of course, then other people can also sell that memory, probably at a cheaper price. If you want to charge a premium on memory, then you should let Motorola charge a premium, too.
