A good reason to embrace the French...L'iPhone

It appears that when the iPhone launches in Frnace in 2008 it will not be locked to a network for more than 6 months due to local laws. This could represent a saving of £360 (USD$720) against the UK bundled price on offer from the O2 network.

Apple consider it a "cat and mouse game" between themselves and the iPhone unlockers and will continue to try and block current and future functionality for those owners who have chosen this route. Therefore, an official 'unlocked' version from France could be the sensible solution.
