O2 to sell Apple's iPhone
18-09-2007

Mobile phone operator O2 has secured the exclusive contract to sell Apple's iPhone in the UK.

The much-hyped handset, which combines a mobile phone with a media player and internet browser, will be sold in O2, Carphone Warehouse and Apple stores from November 9th costing £269.

A heavy promotional campaign greeted the iPhone's arrival on the US market earlier this year. The digital media industry in the UK is likely to be boosted with the announcement of the iPhone's arrival in the UK.

The iPhone, unlike most other phones, will not run on high-speed 3G internet networks. It will use the slower Edge system.

Apple's chief executive Steve Jobs said: "We're thrilled to be partnering with O2 to offer our revolutionary iPhone to UK customers. US iPhone customer satisfaction is off the charts, and we can’t wait to let UK customers get their hands on it and learn what they think of it."

Earlier this month, Apple angered customers in the US by reducing the price of an iPhone by $200 (£99) just two months after launching the product.
