T-Mobile Expects To Remain Exclusive Carrier Of iPhone In Germany
In the last few weeks, Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) has been striking iPhone deals with carriers around the world, with the handsets to be sold on a non-exclusive basis in several countries. But T-Mobile CEO Hamid Akhavan said today that he expected the wireless operator to continue being the phone’s exclusive distributor in Germany, reports Reuters. Akhavan told the Reuters Technology, Media and Telecoms Summit in Paris that he also expected that it would be the sole carrier of the upcoming 3G iPhone. Deutsche Telecom sells the iPhone in Austria, but last week Orange announced it too would carry the device there. France Telecom’s Orange has also said its exclusive agreement with Apple will run another two and a half years.
