Apple’s much anticipated iPhone will go on sale in Britain tonight (November 9th) and sales will begin just after 18:00 GMT at 1,300 Apple, O2 and Carphone Warehouse stores - both on the high street and online.
Comprising a mobile phone, a widescreen iPod and an internet device, complete with multi-touch interface, the iPhone is bound to be a big hit, according to Apple. Costing £269, each iPhone comes with 8 GB of storage and will work with either a Mac or PC.
Each customer will be allowed to buy up to two iPhones on a first-come, first-served basis.
‘We can’t wait for our customers to get their hands on the iPhone this Friday night,’ said Ron Johnson, Apple’s retail vice president.
From February, third parties would be allowed to develop applications for the iPhone, although work still has to be done to tackle the problem of malware, viruses and privacy attacks, according to Apple.
