Apple (AAPL) iPhone launches in UK on O2 network

September 18th, 2007 | Category: Stocks

Our sister site The Unofficial Apple Weblog has been liveblogging the London Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) announcement that the iPhone will be available in the UK. The iPhone will launch November 9th and will cost £269. The exclusive carrier will be O2, and contracts will be £35, £45 or £55 respectively and include WiFi at The Cloud hotspots.

This is the first step

of Apple’s worldwide rollout. Apple indicated that it expected to sell 1 million devices by the year’s end, which it has already met, and 10 million in 2008. Getting a foot in the door in Europe is the first step in making that goal happen even sooner.
