Orange Loses iPhone Exclusivity in France

by

Apple must allow other mobile carriers to sell the iPhone 3G in France based on a ruling today.

The decision overturns an exclusive arrangement with Apple that has allowed Orange to be the iPhone's exclusive distributor in France since the phone was launched last year.

Orange does not believe the decision will affect agreements in other countries. Bouygues Telecom "welcomed" the ruling and plans to sell the iPhone shortly.
