Are you sure it wasn't Orange France - they have distribution rights there.

No I read the article on The Regsiter - what it basically says is that O2 has not sold enough phones so as in other countries Apple is allowed to sign up a second network.

Go to the site and have a look - you have to search a bit but it is there

The only article I could find was the one posted by James. I also saw an article saying that Apple paid actors to queue for the iPhone, or the Jesus phone as the Register call it, in Poland - LOL

Paying actors!!! OMG...this is marketing gone mad! If they'd given me an iPhone, I'd have rounded up all my mates and done that too!

It's good to know that Orange may be getting this phone...I really want one but I'm prepared to wait until the hype (and price) dies down a little!

Default IPhone to Orange

Hi, Swapped from Orange to O2 in Feb to get the iPhone. The phone is great but O2 is AWFUL. No network, dropped calls. All O2 say is go outside to make a call! Still got another 12 months x £35 to go. Biggest mistake i've done to date.
