So what if we’ve all been led to believe the iPhone will only come to Europe in 2008 and not earlier than that. It doesn’t mean rumors, and in this case rumors with an online ad to substantiate it, have no validity. We know iPhone in Germany will be distributed by T-Mobile, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, and it only makes sense that it’s going to be 3G, since Europeans would have nothing less than 3G speeds on their phone. EDGE is practically a dead technology in hi-tech Western Europe. Secondly, if iPhone will have 3G, then why not HSDPA? Everything has HSDPA nowadays, especially with all the extra storage space in the 16GB iPhone that will be available for Europeans when iPhone becomes available to Europeans. With that said, the ad above is worthy of our vigilance. If the 16GB 3G and HSDPA iPhone will come in November, it should come with a 499 Euro ($687) price tag, which still makes it cheaper than under-featured fashion phones like LG Prada 1. Then there’s there the totally resonable expectation that if Europe will have a 3G, HSDPA iPhone in November, the U.S. must have it too at that time frame or earlier.
