O2 gives gives hint at 3G iPhone launch date
O2 has dropped a small bit if information which hints at the launch date for the 3G iPhone. It is not very exact, just like all the other rumors regarding dates, it does say that they expect it “in the coming weeks”. Well, that is about as vague as it can get. O2 has states that they will be making a joint announcement with Apple in that time to announce the new device.
This is of course falling in line with the rumored date we know now, which is June 9th. This is of course referring to Apple’s WWDC event that is being held that day. O2 was still shy about the exact date that the new iPhone would come out, saying instead “that is more of a question for Apple”. Well we know Apple is not going to tell until they have to, so looks like we still have to wait if we want something more solid.
According to O2, they will have the exclusive rights to sell the new iPhone in the U.K. and Ireland. O2 is already Apple’s partner for selling the device in those areas, so it is not a surprise O2 gets this one too. O2 is currently sold out of iPhone’s, which has prompted many rumors the newer iPhone could be dropping on their network shorty.
