Why the iPhone madness passes me by

If you’ve been on Twitter over the past couple of days, it would have been hard to miss the iPhone madness that’s engulfing the world. 50% of the Tweeting population seems to be in a queue for a 3G iPhone, heading for a queue or Tweeting from their newly-acquired gadget.

You’ve got to admire Apple for their marketing nous.

But I can’t take part – even if I wanted to cut short my current contract. Why? Apple’s chosen network – O2 – doesn’t work where I live. I’d have liked to have seen the iPhone available from Apple stores, with a choice of network SIM.

But it isn’t. So until Apple is less restrictive with its distribution, I can’t even consider buying one.

Good luck with your queuing!
