Last Friday it was widely reported that Monday July 2nd would bring Europe an announcement regarding the iPhone.

Guy Kewney of Newswireless.net who originally broke the story puts the delay down to legal wranglings as well as Apple waiting to announce the sale of 1 million units in the US.

“What we’re hearing is that there was a contract drawn up in Germany; but that when Vodafone’s Newbury lawyers saw it, they said they weren’t signing a contract under German law, and it had to be re-drafted under UK legislation.”

Also according to Kewney completed “activations” of iPhone accounts currently stands at 600,000.
