Looks like Apple fanboys in both Germany and the UK will be able to join hands in song November 9th. Deutschland will also be getting the iPhone come the November date, albeit not as cheap as we do. The 8GB iPhone will retail for €399 and is being sold through T-Mobile Germany (Deutsch Telekom). That’s also after a 2-year T-Mobile tariff and V.A.T. is figured into the price.
German iPhone users will get to enjoy all the great features that we do, like visual voicemail, Google Maps, WiFi iTunes Store, etc. It’s a good thing that Apple chose Deutsch Telekom, as it’s the only wireless provider in Germany to have full EDGE on a GSM network.
Finally we get it in Germany! Although it’s a little bit pricey I will buy it right away.
I wrote an article in my blog about why I hate so much my Nokia E61 and why I will buy an iPhone: http://www.designvsart.com/blog/
