It's about the iPhone deal in the UK.

Funny to see that MacRumors hasn't been informed of this!

 

[Peace]

Who has ?

 

[nlivo]

could your post be any more vague.

 

[0007776]

do you have a link to another site that has been informed of it?

Says who?

People working for CPWH?

Oh god. Hopefully they're more reliable than "I heard some Apple retail employees talking and..." because that almost NEVER turns out to be correct.

Yes, Carphone Warehouse.

Fact there is a bad connection with foreign insiders and MacRumors... If MacRumors was more conscientious for seeking the best infos (and not only publishing Piper Jaffray's memos...) then this website should be far better.

You still haven't posted a link.

Check out the CPW UK website in the next 24 or 48 hours

Got the info this morning from someone working at CPW.

Okay, no offense to OP, but we've seen too many posts like this, so the credibility of this one is quite diminished.

Nevertheless, will anyone else be monitoring the CPW site? I know I will be.

regardless, I'm sure many hardcore Apple UK fans have an iPhone unlocked and usable in their possession... I know I would if I lived in the UK.

Frankly, for me (who will be there in...9 days), without 3G it's a tough sell when both Vodafone and Orange have decent HSDPA coverage. 400 bucks, then unlocking, then having to worry about updates that break it all? I'm still not sure, though I'm in the market for a new smartphone...

Can anyone add to this story? i.e. any others also heard of an anouncement today or tomrw?

Whats interesting is on Carphone Warehouse's (CPW) website, under "Coming Soon" handsets, they have the Aple iPod Touch shown??? Now why would they show an MP3 player as coming soon when CPW only deal with phones? Hmmm...

They do sell iPods and accessories as well though.

Engadget has posted an invite for a press event on 9/18

Very weird. Phone 3G?

This thread seems to have been nothing but hot air up until rdowns post above, for which a new thread exists. Please move discussion of the Apple Event over to there.

New Thread.
