Good news if you’re a German who’s been waiting to buy an iPhone until the price dropped. It’s dropped, and how! T-Mobile has cut the cost of the 8GB iPhone from 399 Euros to 99 Euros - a whopping 75% price cut.
Opinions are divided on whether this is because Apple’s handset isn’t selling well in Germany, or because T-Mobile wants to clear its stock before selling the 3G model, which is due to be released in the next few months. MocoNews reports that T-Mobile announced it had sold 70,000 iPhones in January, but hasn’t released updated figures since.
However, for those of us in the UK, the news leads to another question: will O2 follow suit, and if so, how soon? On its online store, the 8GB model is still selling for £269 (about 340 Euros - you could buy three for that price in Germany now, and still have enough left over for a slap-up bratwurst meal). Boo, hiss.
