iPhone Carriers Worldwide
June 4th, 2008
It seems that during the few weeks we were down, a lot has happened in terms of worldwide iPhone carrier agreements. We will discuss the details of Apple’s next generation iPhone in the coming days, but it is important to note that Apple will be staggering worldwide launches following the Worldwide Developers Conference.

Those countries currently selling the iPhone will receive their first shipments at a similar time to AT&T in the United States (where shipments are already arriving on both the West and East coasts). Vodafone is expected to be next off the block with a launch near the end of the month (though there is some speculation that New Zealand, Australian and Canadian stores will be permitted to begin selling iPhones as of next Tuesday), followed by the remaining, mostly smaller, carriers late July through early August.
Below we have complied what we hope to be a conclusive list of those who have an agreement to distribute the iPhone in their country of operation:
