Rumor: iPhone to be legally availble in Jordan by end of March
Today I heard from a worker at a local Apple dealer that the iPhone will be available legally in Jordan by the end of next month.
But the more interesting part of the rumor is that the iPhone will be released in Jordan without being locked to a mobile carrier. This w means you would simply buy the iPhone and use it with your favorite carrier.
Let’s hope it is not overpriced!

I dont know about the timing. But I have seen screenshots of the iPhone in complete Arabic interface working perfectly on the Mobily network.

I knew that it’s going to be released from Zain… and the next day they told me Orange! Apparently it’s a RUMOR!

Unlikely, unless they follow suit in some other countries as well. They wouldn’t just ditch their strategy of Operator Exclusivity just for our sakes here in Jordan.

yeah, definetly a rumour… I wish it wasnt… no where in the world will the iphone be legally released unlocked.
February 23rd, 2008 at 11:20 pm
well..
think about it. in a small market like jordan, confining the iphone to one operator might severely limit the market. maybe it will not be ‘unlocked’ but licensed to multiple operators. Isn’t that a possibility?

I own one for more than 5 months now since the first trade shipment came to UAE and was unlocked… i got the 8 GB and all i can say that PDAs, Smartphones, Mobiles are all simply black and white comparing to it …
i used to change my mobile every 2 months maximum because of my business i need to keep up with the technology (according to my management point of view) but this one am not changing … thats for sure.

[...] Let’s see if the rumors of carrier independence come true. [...]

The perfect storm; I need a cell phone, the Iphone was coming out on June 29th and it just happens to be my birthday! I got it. I fell in love until Apple punished me less than 90 days later for being an early buyer and I hated them for it. Still They did give me some store credit. Honestly its very convenient and addictive. However I do not have video capturing as you mentioned before- not that I used that ever. But to those who do it may matter. The other problem it only came with AT&T here and I have NO signal in my home unless I stick my head out of the living room window! Everywhere else the signal is fine. I use my wireless network at home and use it as an Ipod which I did not own before (being not high on gadgets). Have not seen it in Arabic that would be wild.
