Give every prisoner a locked-down iPhone - 'as big as T-Mobile'

Sam describes Chris Redlitz's new for-profit startup to give inmates internet-disabled iPhones for tracking, education, and work prep - undercutting the price-gouging incumbent prepaid providers - with Redlitz predicting it could become as big as T-Mobile.

“He wants to give an iPhone to all the prisoners. Now, I don't know if this means like low security, high security. I don't know which prisoners exactly, but he wants to give an iPhone to all of them. They won't be able to use the internet, but it's a way to track them, to send them education stuff so they can learn how to prepare for work a lot of really cool stuff.”
