So its official! in France iPhone fans will be buying via Orange. So, thats AT&T in the US, O2 in the UK, and T-Mobile in Germany, an odd strategy. France is the really interesting market for the iPhone because French customers have the right to have their phones unlocked from an operator by law. This was the first chink in the SPV armour back in 2002 when we could get device unlock via Orange France. I’m interested to see how the roaming works, will iPhone users roam only onto iPhone carriers when they enter their territories?
