While the iPhone 3G has just been launched in France (we reported here), in Germany T-Mobile must be quite content, because iPhones over here are completely sold out. Currently it is not clear, when new iPhones can be delivered by Apple. T-Mobile needed to set some thousand customer orders pending.
T-Mobile said they already sold 15,000 devices on german launch day last week. It is reported AT&T in the U.S. seems also be running out of 3G iPhones soon.
Since today also the french customers can obtain the new iPhone 3G. Prices vary between 509€/8GB model and 609€/16GB model. As expected it is SIM locked, but the french carrier Orange is legally obliged to SIM unlock . The fee is said will be at about 100€.
