The iPhone launched this morning in the UK at 8am, but unfortunately a snag was to be found. In London a queue of over 150 people was formed (with some queuing over a day) which when the doors opened the on-line registration system refused to accept details or payments for the new phone. Oops. It is estimated that just a few dozen iPhones will be made available at launch today with others wanting to buy having to wait a few more weeks or months until the end of summer.
O2 were limiting the iPhone to just one per customer although if you are a business user then you are allowed two of the phones, assuming you were in the queue from early on today. A significant change over the first iPhone is that the UK will be offering the phone for free on some of it’s plans (those for £45 and above) which is a smart move and very welcomed move.
