iPhone says 'Allo to UK

The iPhone's arrival on UK shores became imminent Tuesday as Apple revealed that O2 will be the device's official carrier for the area, confirming widespread speculation. The price for the device in the UK will be about US$542 - less than the iPhone's price when it debuted stateside, but significantly more than Americans currently pay. It will hit UK shelves on 9 November, little more than five months after its US launch.
