Apple iPhone to be Available from O2 UK on November 9th

Apple has finally announced the first European carrier for the iPhone . The O2 UK will officially launch the handset on November 9th for £269 including VAT. The following voice plans are available and will include unlimited data:

• £35 - 200 mins + 200 SMS
• £45 - 600 mins + 500 SMS
• £55 - 1200 mins + 500 SMS

As we expected, no new features were added to the iPhone, and there is still no word on the possible European release of its 3G version, so Britishers will just have to be satisfied with EDGE/Wi-Fi connectivity instead.

Of course, if you can't wait until the official release, you can always get yourself an unlocked handset.
