Without a huge box to worry about, Apple can shave a few pennies (per unit) in production -- and a few more by virtue of an increased product density (i.e., more goods in smaller spaces). Additionally, the ease of moving inventory, from warehouse to retail, will probably be a cost-cutter as well. So as far as end-to-end solutions go, this move makes cents. ;) Repackaging may actually increase product visibility while lowering costs.
