Anyway, the phone is only GSM capable atm and is soon to have 3g capabilities soon too. The main reason behind the late shipping is because of a deal between apple and Cingular (an American telecommunication company) from what I can tell.
totally agree with you, but with telstra or other telco's implementing 3G now, in the long term to get to 4G its only gonna require a software upgrade, , an yes 3G aint that great but its a sight lot better than the current 2G crap, Australia in some ways has been behind other countries, why, im not so sure, ,
