Finally, Apple has decided to launch an unlocked iPhone in France come November. Orange recently confirmed that the iPhone is likely to be sold by it for 399 Euro, and the unlocked iPhone will be available too.
The price of the unlocked iPhone has not been announced yet. Orange will be the operator exclusive partner in France, which puts to rest a speculation that has been tracked by analysts for some time now.
Seeing the trend Apple is following, seems like its gonna be in India soon. officially i.e. And also, with the annnouncement of the Unlocked version also available in France, come november, we might not need those hacks/cracks, perhaps for adding ringertones/apps, but that would be it :-)
