OFFICIAL: iPhone in the Philippines (merged), Posted 05-12-2008, 02:04 PM #1
Globe's Head for Consumer Wireless Business Ferdinand Dela Cruz announced today that Globe, SingTel, Bharti Airtel, and Optus have signed an agreement with Apple to bring the iPhone to the Philippines, Singapore, India, and Australia later this year.

More details will be announced soon.


Anyone heard from the Smart camp? I'm guessing this isn't exclusive, or else the announcement would have said so, right?

Hmmm, will they have it SIM-locked to Globe or will it be open line with the Globe SIM installed? Any chance for an open line with a prepaid account?

I'll be holding out from getting an iPhone til I see the actual ads from Globe. -I do hope this is for real.

quick someone send it to Apple Insider and Macrumors. Though I am surprised by Apple's choice though.
