I didn’t had the chance to try the iphone before, I think since I brought my laptop which have a complete media center and I am kind of a way from buying high tech sets, I just feel that I had enough of Technology in my life, so I am not using a complex cell phone anymore, I am using a very simple cell phone, I suppose it’s only to talk and save important phone umbers.
I was almost buying the iphone, but since so many people in USA tried it and their feed backs was not good about it didn’t like it, I thought I don’t need it. iphone have a high Technology and a touch screen, I think this is why people don’t like it, because they are not used to this new Tech, and one thing that I have to mention also is iphone’s big size that I personally don’t like. I just need a cell phone to hide in my pocket.
From the other side I think that Arabian gulf people like this kind of phones, and they are wishing to have it soon! I have wrote about the iphone when it came to Egypt for the first time here. This time the news is from Etisalat!
Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirate consumers will be able to get their hands on the iPhone 3G soon this probably will be in February. Etisalat has signed a deal with Apple to distribute the combination iPod and smartphone.
Etisalat will offer the iPhone 3G in Saudi Arabia through its affiliate company Mobily. It’s not officially yet, no information about what types of service packages will be offered, or how much iPhone will cost.
Apple has been actively pursuing additional markets for the iPhone 3G. So far, Apple has sold over 13 million iPhone 3G units since its launch, I just to let you know that I am not one of them yet!
