Apple steps up iPhone roll out

apple-phone-closeup.jpgApple has significantly stepped up the roll-out of the iPhone, after signing a multi-continent deal with France Telecom, parent company of mobile operator Orange.

The deal brings the iPhone to countries including Switzerland, Belgium, Austria, Slovakia, Jordan and Egypt. Orange will also start to sell the iPhone in its African territories later this year, France Telecom says.

The news comes after Apple announced a multi-country deal with rival operator Vodafone, which now sells the iPhone in Vodafone in Greece, India and Australia,among other countries.

The move is bound to add further to rumours that Apple is preparing to launch a 3G handset, as the original iPhone’s relatively slow GPRS and EDGE data connections were said to have deterred some operators from agreeing deals.
