This phenomena may not be too surprising, as by surveys, as many as 10 percent of cellphone consumers in England are very interested to buy iPhone.

While in Germany, only T-Mobile network can be used by iPhone. It is true that iPhone can be hacked so that it can used with other network. But this effort will void the iPhone’s warranty from its producer, Apple.
