If you translated all the things from The Innovators, from the netherlands, you could see that they never announced the iPhone. As you ppl are US i can cut and paste here but wouldn’t work. The thing is that they announced something that was: Wireless, Windows and Mac comaptible, never sold before in Holland and you can call The Innovators very easy with that.
It’s in peoples heads that it should be an iPhone. On the other hand, would Apple tell this to a (very)local reseller? Don’t think so!
On the 29th of march they presented what they had. It was an art-mousepad, limited edition. What does it have to do with the “easy to call us” thing? Simple: they putted their phone number on it.
And everyone in here was getting nuts, iPhone is coming to Holland… Check the story at http://www.the-innovators.nl/ (maybe google can translate for you?)
And.. Is someone sending my iPhone to me now?
