O2 Get UK iPhone Contract?

Filed in archive Mobile Technologies by Editor on July 5, 2007

The BBC is reporting this morning that UK operator O2 has secured a deal with Apple to be the exclusive provider of the iPhone in the UK.
A spokesman for O2, which is owned by Spain's Telefonica, declined to comment on the reports.

More than 500,000 iPhones were sold in the first weekend in the US by AT&T, which has exclusive rights there.

Vodafone had previously been tipped as the likely winner of the contract.

The agreement with O2 is reported to include Apple receiving a continuing share of the revenue generated for the network operator.
The handsets are expected to retail for around £300 when they're launched later this year.
