iPhone Australia Coming Soon?

Telstra...Oh man that sucks.

Enjoy your "twice the price"-iphone

This might just simply be their reaction to the release of the SDK. I highly doubt this is anything Telstra/iPhone release specific, it would be them trying to get a jump on other local search providers.

Then again, we always be hopeful :D

If Telstra gets the deal, Australia will let a collective moan.

Thinking of emigrating actually, but know nothing about the telecom market out there. I've got a UK iPhone, so if push comes to shove I'll just unlock it if the service proposition out there is guff.

I already have an iPhone running on Telstra. Got it at a cheap price, I have a cheap plan, nothing like what telstra will offer. Except I can't compete with internet wherever I am with unlimited data plans. That would be awesome.

I'll let out a woohoo, buy it, and then promptly jailbreak it. It'll just be nice to have them of a decent price and the possibility of a warranty.


edit: I was checking out the progress of the Sydney Apple store last week. Looks like they've finished putting the glass panelling on the outside of the store. From what I could see on the George street side it's going to be great. I assume once that's completed it's a matter of doing the internal fit out. Can't wait to see it once the covers come off. And I'm still hoping for a simultaneous store opening and iPhone release-extravaganza :).

i want a 3G iPhone. Most Aussie carriers rip us off, and the ones that don't are on the 3 network

Telstra?? Oh dear god...please tell me this doesn't include NZ (overseas people tend to slot us together). I want Vodafone instead *crosses fingers*

I was almost celebrating at the sound of the iPhone coming down under...

Then i see "Telstra"... well i think i'm just going to have to jailbreak it...

But it'll probably be expensive.. (heads to Hong Kong or China)

Perhaps so, however it is not like big old Telstra to be so up to speed with new technology or in this case the SDK.

It's cos there's big bucks at stake. Bucks that will only come with an Apple/Telstra deal.

Plus, the job offer is for 2-3 months. This coincides with the iPhone software 2.0 release in June
