iPhone finally coming to Ireland

The mobile phone carrier O2 has announced that it will be the exclusive carrier for the popular Apple iPhone in Ireland following its successful launch in the UK last year.

The official debut for the device in Ireland is slated for March 14th. The device will sell in O2's retail stores and also through "Carphone Warehouse" retail stores. The smaller capacity 8GB model of the iPhone will sell for €399 including VAT. The larger capacity 16GB model will retail for €499 including VAT. Obviously the device will work with both Macs and PCs.



The different service plans will be available from O2, with the cheapest beginning at €45. Each plan will have anytime minutes, text messaging and a 1GB data bundle at least.

More details when they become available.

  I want this to come to OZ. I am tired of seeing this everywhere else. I should have got one when i was in the middle east. The only reason i was not getting one it would have cost me $A1500 and that is an unlocked apple iphone that has all the software u can use with no dramas. What was i thinking not getting one.
