I was hoping for a better iPhone in Europe, since the day they announced that baby in the States. I even planned to buy it there, but everybody around, was tellin me - dude wait till they release it here in Europe, then you'll get UMTS/3G and MMS (the iPhone doesnt even have MMS) But what?! More than 6 months have passed and the only thing Apple did was, printed regional iPhone boxes and got some bad ass expensive contracts. Tss, i was always a fan of Apples design, but thats true shit. I am not going to spend about 450 Euros (with an expensive contract) for a phone that has less features than a good 300 Euro Nokia (with cheap O2 contract) No way! Good bye iPhone Europe. All the best from Poland, Bart Pathetic,…

Greets from Germany, Johannes I don’t think Germany has this problem (30% EDGE coverage) – but it’s still crazy that companies change their investment plans in a matter of weeks just to be capable of getting in a deal with Apple.
