If I had to guess they probably wont do it until they come out with the 3g phone. If I ran inventory at Apple I wouldnt want to be making a whole bunch of phones that are gonna be outdated in two months.

So, no more waffling and the iPhone will sprout there if they have the Gaul.

So how does that work with Visual Voicemail? Will the unlocked iPhones not have that functionality or is AT&T;licensing it to other companies?

Well I like that with ATT exclusivity we've gotten visual voicemail and a pretty decent phone/unlimited data service package. However, I think that an exclusive relationship with a carrier demands a bit more than this. I was already using ATT before I got my iPhone last June, so Apple's decision didn't present a problem for me. That said, I've still been waiting to see awsome advantage derived from the exclusive partnership. So far I've seen no such justification for it. Unless Apple and ATT have more fruits of their partnership to show off I am all for unlocking the iPhone as soon as contractually possible.

I hope their network is clear or people might sound phlegmish.

Don't know about you, but apple releasing iPhones to more parts of europe is getting dull now...

Let's just move on from here... I wanna hear the real stuff, like china, australia, japan, singapore....especially China, since the olympics are on.

The population of Belgium is 10M. The population of Canada is 33M. Yet, no real sign or news of the iPhone ever coming to Canada. You can thank the obstinacy of Rogers for that...

What the hell is with everybody demanding GPS to be in iPhone or any phone for that matter? Do we really need to cram every little handheld gadget into one? How many of us actually NEED GPS? That's what I thought. It's nothing but irrational feature greed. Besides, the iPhone already has a pseudo-GPS with Google Maps which is more than enough for the most.

MMS should be there, though.

Well for those that need GPS obviously...it's just a lot more convenient that you don't have to look at directions while driving(voice guided). Besides you can turn it off when you're not using it, not like it's on all the time to suck the precious battery life.

GPS in a phone is a bloody excellent feature. No need to lug around a TomTom and phone when you travel, personalised directions when walking in a city, etc, etc, etc. Only an Apple fanboi would ridicule this although rest assured that as soon as Apple catch up it will be universally agreed that this is a great and cool feature invented by S Jobs.

Yes!! Belgium before Canada, whohahaha
