Apple releases in-depth UK & German iPhone sites
With just one week, yes a mere seven days, until the iPhone touches down (legitimately) here in the UK and Germany, Apple has unveiled more in-depth iPhone product pages with the ads and more material for the launch of the much-fabled phone. Unfortunately, my favourite ad from the US - 'Calamari' - hasn't made the flight across the Atlantic due to the simple fact that there's no iTunes Movie Store here. All the US videos and guides such as the handy 'Getting Ready for iPhone' are available, as is a more comprehensive pricelist for the iPhone accessories (I'll save rants about 'Rip-off Britain' for another day).If you've not got your fill of iPhone eye candy (where have you been?) then this certainly is the definitive place to find out what we can expect to be talking about next week - American readers, be warned!
Thanks tipster 'Hutch'!

Fraggle,
The word is that the iPhone is now sporting a v.1.1.2 firmware in the U.K.

The incoming call screen looks different in the UK ads. Has anyone else notices this?

Although based in London, I am going to wait and see what happens in France at the end of the month. I am hoping that the unlocked french firmware will be easy to install on any iPhone? Mind you I have no real idea what I'm talking about!

Let's say when the iPhone's released it's released with version 1.1.2.
In time when it's cracked, will it ever be possible to update my US iPhone with UK firmware? - Or will this be pointless?

According to people I have spoken to the launch will be from 18:00 - 21:00. The phone will also be sporting revised firmware. I have also been told that US phones will not work- I guess time will tell if this true. Anyway I'm definitely getting an official UK one.
