Germany to rock the iPhone boat?
While I'm not convinced the court injunction will actually provide Germany with free-for-all iPhones I must say that this is one piece of news I will be watching closely today. My guess is that T-Mobile will slightly change the contract so that the iPhones are network-free after the two years initial contract runs out. According to Spiegel-Online, T-Mobile yesterday stated that they would be announcing changes as early as this morning.
Upadate: T-Mobile have issued a press release stating that the sale of iPhones will continue. They also say that will be complying with the injunction until the case is brought to court which could be in 2 weeks or so. Spiegel-Online has just stated that unlocked iPhones will be on sale in the T-Mobile shops - for 999 Euro - 600 Euro more than the locked version. That's just under $1500 for the unlocked version. Customers who bought the iPhone after the 19th of November can get it unlocked for free.
