That’s no help to us, since O2 aren’t a carrier here. Given their wide range of choice between Hellstra, Optarse and Vodafaux (and 3, forgot them), I wonder which Apple will choose. On the upside, 3G networks have widespread (ish) coverage here – something the US doesn’t have (they couldn’t even settle on a single standard – and when they implemented GSM, couldn’t agree on a single frequency! Democracy at its finest!)
Back to the point, the BBC have a couple of articles on the O2 deal and the iPhone vs. the Nokia N95, both of which make rather interesting reads.
To finish, a rather odd quote from Steve Jobs (who described the deal as a marriage):
“We dated a few people who we didn’t get married to,” he said. “So there are a few unhappy girlfriends out there.”
