Want 3G Apple iPhone in Australia, 3 Network launches petition

If you live in countries like the U.S., UK, Germany and other parts of Europe then you will all be looking forward to the arrival of the new Apple 3G iPhone. However; if you live in Australia and are on the 3 Mobile Network, then the sad news is, you will not get the chance to get your hands on this latest handset. You can choose to go on to Optus and Vodafone in Australia, but that is no good if you prefer 3.

iPhone 3G Pricing Announced

Telstra announces the iPhone 3G for their super fast Next G network in Australia. The Apple iPhone 3G will be available from Telstra on July 11th, like in most other markets Apple has announced a deal.

Our friends from the land down under will most probably be happier with the pricing rates of the iPhone 3G when it hits the Australian market on July 11. Telstra Australia has just announced their pricing rates for the iPhone 3G, and while it is not as cheap as the AT&T offering, their pricing plans still seem better than those of Canada’s Rogers Communications.

With only 8 days to go before the iPhone 3G gets announced, Optus is the first Aussie Telco to release comprehensive information on their iPhone pricing plans. If you head on over to their iPhone page you’ll see a comprehensive breakdown of postpaid pricing data. The interesting thing is that the maximum amount of included data is 1GB. To be completely honest, this will be more than enough for most users.

iPhone 3G Pricing Details from Telstra

As we all know, three providers will offer the iPhone 3G in Australia starting July 11: Optus, Vodafone, and Telstra. Based on prior news, Telstra claims its iPhone 3G will enjoy the fastest connection not just in Australia, but in the world. Now Telstra announced its pricing details for the iPhone 3G in its Next G network. Unfortunately, although Telstra announced the pricing, it seems it left out details about the data included in the package.
