International iPhone pricing guide

On July 11, 2008, the iPhone 3G will be launching all over the world. As the release date draws near, we have been inundated with tips from readers about international 3G launch dates and prices.

In an attempt to try to keep the information organized in one place, I (stupidly, perhaps) volunteered to create a table containing the data from every country that is releasing the iPhone 3G on July 11 (plus France, which is launching on July 17). I did my best to provide the most accurate information, although some carriers have yet to release official information.

If you see any errors, please let me know -- I can update the table and the results will correct themselves immediately on this page.

Update: Thank you for all the helpful feedback! I will be out of town for the 4th of July, but will try to get information updated/corrected later today. I am also considering putting together a different chart comparing the final price at the end of contract, to determine who gets the "best" and "worst" deals respectively on the iPhone 3G.

Thanks to everyone who sent in links that helped contribute to this information!

It's not Orange, it's Optimus. Orange doesn't even operate in Portugal.

As Alfredo said here's the aforementioned post where they analize the "hidden" prices in Telcel's iPhone minisite:

careful!

in Austria you pay 10euros for the first 6 month! then it is 25euros. plus to use it as iphone (with data), you have to get the additional iphone pack for another 14 euros.
total of 39 euros/month
well - could be cheaper...
