iPhone Warning From Scotland Yard
11.08.07 - 04:07pm
The Scotland Yard is warning UK’s potential iPhone buyers to keep their purchases low key on Friday as otherwise they may
become the target of muggers.
Scotland Yard said yesterday: “We are aware of the launch tomorrow of Apple’s iPhone and we would encourage people not to attract attention to themselves when using a mobile phone in public.”
The iPhone has been the talk of many in Britian for the last several months especially after the U.S. release in June. Lines are expected in the wee hours of Friday morning as people wait for the device to go on sale at 6:02 Friday evening.
Some in Britian already have the iPhone, having bought it from America and then used services such as AppleiPhoneUnlock.co.uk to establish a connection via any carrier they prefer. The iPhone has been locked into Britians O2 network the same as it is locked into America’s AT&T. The unlocked phones work provided you skip any software updates that can and have bricked unlocked phones.
The iPhone will also be going on sale in Germany through T-Mobile on Friday. It will launch in France on Nov. 29th.
