iPhone no longer available in the UK

Ladies and gentlemen, he was a good buddy. Its large glossy screen made people around envy you (at least when you were in the hotspot area), and its media playing capabilities were second to none. However, he’s not longer with British citizens…

iPhone, at least in its 2G version, is official dead in the UK. And even though we knew this is coming, O2 UK obviously wanted to make things clear, hence their iPhone page has a simple “iPhone no longer available” sentence. This in return prompts a question when will the 3G iPhone be released, and who will get the honor to carry it. Hopefully, we’ll know sooner rather than later. June seems like a month to look forward to…

He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.

    I followed your link and it allowed me to put a 16 gig iPhone in the virtual shopping basket…

    I did to and it allowed me to place one in the basket also. I never saw a message about it being nolonger available!

  • Kim

    Yup, 16Gb has re-appeared. . .

  • Support o2

    Its not “no longer available”, its actually just the 8gb one is out of stock at the moment you can still buy the 16gb one.

    There are more 8gb on the way

    No mention of a 3G one yet!!
