iPhone 4 Availability in Italy
Apple’s iPhone 3 and iPhone 3 Gs mobile phone models have now been superseded by the new Apple iPhone 4. Here is a new post on the availability in Italy of Apple’s latest mobile phone the iPhone 4 for those outside Italy who are trying to find an unlocked or contract-less iPhone 4.
The Apple iPhone 4 landed in Italy last week right at the tail end of July. It’s arrival attracted plenty of interest with queues forming at both the Rome and Milan. By all accounts, the launch of the iPhone 4 was a roaring success.
I tried to get hold of an iPhone 4 today, but I don’t want an unlocked version, as I am happy to have one with a contract, seeing as I live and work in Italy.
Anyway, my iPhone 4 hunt proved fruitless, as our local Vodafone outlet has now closed, and the Expert electronics store in nearby Via Canonica only had one 16Gb TIM iPhone 4 in stock – which was an unlocked version of the iPhone 4 and could not be had with a contract.
Via a Twitter conversation with Anyia, a dyed in the wool iPhone and Blackberry fan, I found out that finding a contractless/unlocked iPhone 4 is not likely to be easy. Italy’s mobile phone providers would much prefer people to buy an iPhone 4 with a contract. Fine by me, but not for those of you who are after an unlocked iPhone 4.
So, where can you get hold of a shiny new Apple iPhone 4 in Italy this summer?
