Which countries will get the iPhone 5 upon its initial release?

USA
Canada
Atlantic Ocean (there's a lot of whale demand for it)

 

The iPhone 4S launched in 7 countries initially (United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom). I could quite easily, and am really hoping to, see the same. Unless there is a shortage, then it may be restricted in the US only for a few weeks.

Texas

i plan on buying one on launch,but i'm sure some people especially at the NYC stores will start to camp out weeks in advance

 

As long as the UK get it i'm happy!

 

They do have their own navy and they keep threatening to secede. Obviously, they haven't talked to S. Carolina and asked how their secession went.

For some reason, I thought release day would have more countries. I guess China would be too big to be included.

 

It's possible: the new iPad was launched simultaneously in mid-March in the 7 countries mentioned above by cambookpro as well as in Hong Kong, Singapore and Switzerland...

 

Those three places have a combined population of 20 million. Not the same as adding China.

 

Thanks for clarifying! What I meant to say is: it's possible the new iPhone will be launching in additional countries. However, i totally agree with you that an initial launch in China is highly unlikely or rather not going to happen
