This makes it possible to extend their service offerings into the S40 handsets, which is where the volume is.

Most of them already have that, as evidenced by OZ's currently partnerships. If nothing else, this will benefit consumers and carriers, because consumers with unbranded devices will now have an easily-justified reason to spring for that higher data package - out of the box.
