Apple ‘cannot stop T Mobile’s iPhone plan’

Apple cannot stop T Mobile’s “ingenious plan” to buy contract-free iPhones and use them to retain customers, it has been claimed.

According to the Telegraph, T Mobile is searching across Europe for available versions of the handset it can sell to Brits.
The network declined to comment on the matter but the newspaper said a “considerable amount of cash” would be needed to acquire the phones.

However, it would stop some of the company’s client base leaving for rival operators.

“The radical plan risks invoking the wrath of Apple, which tightly controls its exclusive deal with O2,” the publication added.

On arrival of the iPhone 3G S, it was given the once-over by Trusted Reviews, which gave it an overall score of ten out of ten.
The tech website highlighted usability and design as its strongest elements, but advised potential buyers to consider waiting a couple more months for the releases of the Palm Pre and Android handsets.
