Turkcell Gets the iPhone
Turkcell today announced that it will be bringing the iPhone 3G to Turkey later this year – this follows an earlier (albeit extremely vague) announcement by Vodafone that it will also be offering the iPhone 3G in Turkey.
"Turkcell is the leading wireless provider in Turkey with 35.4 million customers," writes eFluxMedia's Alice Turner. "The carrier did not announce a specific date or price for the Turkish launch, but claims the iPhone will be available to customers of both its prepaid plans and recurring subscription services."
"We're very excited to be working with Apple to bring the iPhone 3G to Turkey," says company CMO Lale Saral Develioglu. "iPhone 3G represents the ultimate in mobile device technologies, and we can't wait to offer this innovative product to millions of mobile customers later this year."
