Africa braces itself for the arrival of the 3G iPhone

Published by on Jun 25th, 2008, 23 Comments

There’s been a lot of rumors and speculation surrounding the 3G iPhone coming to the shores of Africa. As many naysayers have annouced, “Even South Africa has no iTunes Music Store and the Apple presence in South Africa is meager”. All this deliberation has been proven inaccurate as Vodacom announced they’ll be offering the 3G iphone to their customers by the 20th of July 2008, this is part of the ten-country deal that Vodafone has signed with Apple to supply the iPhone to the continent.

It is expected that the new iPhone will come in a variety of colours and with 3G connectivity, integrated GPS and other new exciting features. South Africa will undoubtedly receive this version of the device.

    Please can you tell me if the new Iphone comes with a proper GPS or is it just Google maps? What I am asking is would it be wise to sell my Garmin Nuvi 310 because the new Iphone has a full blown GPS like a garmin and with better features or are there just maps on the Iphone?

    The most racist article and photo ever…

    I will never buy Apple products again, if it supports South Africa’s racism, making native blacks live in shantytowns.

    Appalling!

    Iphone and others like it are opening a window never dreamed of. With the Iphone you con operate your business on the go. You carry our laptop in your hand. It is easy to get familiar with the technology side but the important side after acquiring your handset is the business side. You can find some one to help with the business or get hold of a book that will introduce you to the business side.
