iPhone Set To Hit Germany on November 9th
Germans can now say, “Nyaah to the UK, we’re getting it too!” The chosen carrier is Deutsche Telecom (who, incidentally, owns T-Mobile). The price will be 399 Euros ($553), which is even more expensive than in the UK, but that’s thanks to Germany’s value-added tax of 19%.

The iPhone to Arrive in Britain Soon
If you’re in the UK, you can breathe normally from November 9th, ‘coz that’s when Stevie Jobs says he’ll be shipping the iPhone out there. O2 will be the exclusive carrier to offer the phone just like AT&T is in the US, and O2 will fork out 10% of it’s iPhone-based revenues to Stevie.

You, on the other hand, will fork out a mere 269 GBP (’at’s $536, guvn’r) for the iPhone, compared to the discounted price of $399 in the US.

Simple solution: move to the US!
