Sprint announced that it plans to release the Samsung SCH-M800 Instinct on June 20th.

The phone was first spotted at the 2008 CTIA show in Las Vegas; it is an iPhone-looking handset with a large touchscreen display, built-in GPS receiver, EV-DO Rev.A 3G data for fast downloads and uploads, and much more...

According to Electronista, once Rogers Wireless releases the iPhone, its customers will be able to surf the web with no limit for just $7.

If that's true, Rogers subscribers will be the lucky ones to take advantage of one of the world's cheapest data plans to date.

Knowing this, we expect a high demand for the handset in Canada.

There are rumors saying that Apple plans to enter the Korean and Japanese markets with their 3G iPhone on hands.

As supposed previously the upcoming handset would not be fully compatible with Japan's 3G network. But this appears to be false, as Apple intends to release its next-generation iPhone simultaneously in both Korea and Japan on Korea Free Telecom (KTF)'s and NTT DoCoMo's 3G networks, respectively.

According to Gizmodo, the launch of the 3G iPhone is nearer that we thought, on June 9th at WWDC Keynote to be precise.

Unlike the first iPhone, the new model will not be an exclusive to some carrier, but will be released within a short period of time in the U.S., some countries in Europe, Asia and Latin America, and Australia.

According to the source, there will be new sales policies, which might help lower the price even at the time of launch.

After Vodafone and Singtel, Orange is the next operator to announce the upcoming availability of the iPhone to its customers in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Jordan, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Switzerland and Orange’s African markets.

The release is scheduled for later this year.

Thus, the iPhone will soon be available almost everywhere.

Well, it looks like 3G iPhone is definitely coming in June.

First - no vacations for AT&T store employees until July, second - the "next month" hint on Monday, third - the upcoming 1 year anniversary, and now this: according to O2's CEO, the anticipated handset will be launched in "the coming weeks."

But even after all that we still can't specify the exact launch date.

First is the AT&T's Black iPhone blooper and now this: Swiss carrier Swisscom announced the prices and some details about the future 3G iPhone.

They said it will be available in three capacity versions and three colors, which include black, white and silver. The prices are as following: 659 CHF (about $630) for 16GB variant and 799 CHF (about $760) for 32GB one.

The Singapore-based carrier SingTel announced it will be bringing the iPhone in Singapore, India, the Philippines, and Australia later this year.

The company owns 35% of India's Bharti Airtel, 45% of Globe in the Philippines, and fully owns Australia's Optus. A quick note: Vodafone also plans to launch the iPhone in Australia, so the device will be available there from two carriers.

A new listing of some "iPhone Black" was spotter yesterday on AT&T's account management site.

While we don't know what it was, it could be the future name of the much anticipated 3G iPhone, as it will probably have a glossy black exterior. The truth will be known in a month or so.

Here's how AT&T explained the matter: "The reference to 'iPhone Black' was simply a temporary placeholder used over the weekend for a scheduled catalog update.
