The Apple iPhone is set to make its debut in 10 countries throughout South
and Central America.
Carrier America Movil said that on 22 August it will be releasing the iPhone
3G in Argentina, Chile, Columbia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras,
Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay.
The Mexico-based telco also distributes the iPhone in its home country. The
iPhone launched in Mexico on 11 July as one of 12 countries participating in the
3G model's initial debut.
America Movil joins AT&T in the US and Rogers in Canada to provide iPhone
service in the Americas. The company estimates that it has some 165 million
subscribers in 17 countries.
The latest rollout announcement is part of a much larger iPhone expansion
Apple first announced at its World Wide Developers Conference in June. Over the
next several months, the company hopes to expand the iPhone's reach into some 70
countries.
Ironically, the list of countries does not include Brazil, home to the group
which
first
unlocked the iPhone 3G last month.
