Apple Forced to Sell Unlocked iPhones in France
5 10 2007 
Apple may have a problem selling to the French even after finalizing a deal with Orange. Apple shares with the revenues of the wireless company that has won the right to sell the iPhone, but French law dictates consumers must have the choice of choosing to buy an unlocked version. Apple may choose to price unlocked iPhones exorbitantly or limit distribution of iPhones altogether. Whatever comes out after the French dust settles, one thing is for sure: Apple will have met its match inthe country that popularized Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité.
