The much hyped iPhone went on sale two days ago (Friday) in UK and looks like Britons are just being ******* again by APPLE as usual
-Its costing about £270 in UK thats about 565 US DOLLARS!while users are required to take out a minimum 18 month contract through O2, which will cost a minimum of £630...thats about 1,108.57 US Dollars
-Its mobile phone will run only on the O2 network, with owners signing an 18-month contract on a tariff of £35, £45 or £55 per month.errm thats like $74,$94 and $115
-Sales of these stupid gadgets were limited tonight to just two per customer! because they dont want people to buy 20 of them and start to rip others towards Christmas which is utter none sense
AND an electronic lock on the phones means they cannot be used on any networks other than those chosen by Apple.
But in FRANCE, the law says consumers should be able to use the iPhone on the network of their choice and that the locks should be removed so this means Britons could buy an unlocked iPhone in France and choose a cheaper network.
-The iPhone is already up for sale on eBay.co.uk for more than double its official £269 price tag
iPhone centre in REGENT STREET,LONDON
BUT
Rivals such as LG, Sony Ericsson, HTC and Nokia have launched their own handsets which, by luck or design, bear an uncanny resemblance to the Apple device
