Vodafone UK launches the iPhone, sales expected to reach 50,000 on first day

vodafone-iphone

Vodafone UK officially jumped on the iPhone bandwagon by launching both the iPhone 3G and 3GS today, joining O2, Orange and Tesco Mobile in the now non-exclusive UK market. Vodafone customers looking to keep costs low can score an older 8GB iPhone 3G for free with a minimum monthly plan of £35 ($57USD). Folks that must have the latest and greatest still have the pleasure of receiving a free iPhone but those high rollers will have to agree to a minimum monthly tariff of £45 ($73USD) for an iPhone 3GS 16GB or £75 ($122USD) for the 32GB version. Sales of the iPhone are expected to be brisk with Vodafone moving an estimated 50,000 handsets in this first day of sales.

    Well since this comments to this post have turned into how t-mobile sucks utterly and completely, i figured i’d concur! seriously t-mobile USA really fucking sucks!! They are a disgrace to their parent company.

    Also i’m sure it’ll be on VZW especially when they implement that notorious chip that will make the iphone truly universal. Apple would rather be fully compatible and truly universal rather than just soly work on GSM based networks. i can see it happening in the next 2 years.

    Well, Vodaphone is a part owner of Verizon Wireless, so maybe it’s closer than we thought.
