Apple's
iPhone will not be
constrained to the big three European countries after all.
Reports in the
Financial
Times Deutschland suggest that German operator
T-Mobile
has successfully brokered a distribution agreement for Austria, Croatia, Hungary
and The Netherlands.
Earlier
reports claimed that T-Mobile had reeled in the German iPhone contract,
along with O2 in
the UK and
Orange in
France.
According to the Financial Times Deutschland report, the deal will
offer Apple concessions previously unheard of among handset makers.
In addition to revenue from the sales of the iPhone itself, Apple will
receive a 10 per cent cut of the subscription and usage fees.
The report comes just 24 hours before Apple is expected to reveal its final
plans for a European iPhone rollout.
The company has scheduled a
special media
event in London on 18 September, and the Financial Times
Deutschland said that
Deutsche
Telekom will hold its own press conference on 19 September in Berlin.
Apple did not immediately return a request for comment.
