More fun with carriers! Orange, who already has an exclusive deal with Apple for providing the iPhone in France, has now announced that its made a deal with Apple to bring the iPhone to other countries under their dominion. As of later this year (which we are awarding most favored catchphrase status), Orange will be providing the iPhone in Austria, Belgium, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Jordan, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Switzerland, and Oranges African markets. While they didnt spell out which countries that includes, Orange currently has operations in Guinea Konakri, Senegal, Guinea Bissau, Niger, Ivory Coast, Mali, Kenya, Cameroon, Madagascar, Central African Republic, Equatorial Guinea, Botswana, Reunion, and Mauritius. For those playing along at home, youll notice some duplicates there: Swisscom has already announced a deal in Switzerland, América Móvil has claimed the Dominican Republic, and Vodafone has spoken for Egypt and Portugal. Most interestingly, T-Mobile has been offering the iPhone in Austria since February, which means they didnt manage to snag an exclusive agreement for the country. The country parade seems like its continuing unabated. Lets see what next week brings, shall we? Copyright Mac Publishing LLC. This RSS feed is for personal non-commercial use only.
