iPhone 3G News: Just Two Weeks to Go
Like sands trickling through the hourglass, so are the details of the iPhone 3G. Withtwo weeks to go until the phone’s initial launch, AppleInsider’s sources say thatiPhones will be relatively expensive in Europe. Apple is also reportedly pushing international carriers to offer flat-rate data plans instead of selling data access by the kilobit, so the plans will also be pricey. France Telecom’s Orange announced the pricing and plans for the iPhone 3G’s debut in France on July 17.
As we’ve already told you, Telefonica has announced 300,000 preorders in Spain and the U.K., but an Apple memo claims that no preorders will happen at Apple Stores here in the States, no way no how (Apple can’t wait to have another launch-day frenzy on its hands, we’re sure).
