Since they need a 6 month lead time, anyway (to clear regulatory hurdles), the timing is about right for a "2007 launch" of iPhone in Europe, just in time for Christmas. That phone will easily cost in Euros what it costs here in dollars (higher taxes, etc.). Don't think for a minute that Europeans are going to drop $750-1000 on a phone that doesn't support 3G.
