'I won't be selling
iPhone'
12.03.08
ONE of the county’s
best known mobile phone stores - Digitalfone in
Buncrana - has confirmed this week that they will
not be stocking the Apple iphone. |
Speaking to the
Inishowen Independent, Francis Callaghan, dealer
principal confirmed the store would not be selling
the phone which is due to be launched on Friday,
March 14.
“We understand there is a lot of hype surrounding
the launch of the Apple iPhone but we have taken a
decision not to stock the phone after much
reflection and debate.”
Mr. Callaghan said the reason the store had decided |
|
against stocking the
phone is that the phone being launched in Ireland is
the same phone that was launched in Britain six
months ago and will quickly become an obsolete
model.
“We appreciate the business our customers have
provided us with in the past and as a company that
prides itself in customer care and good cellular
advice we can’t sit back and knowingly watch our
customers sign up to an 18 month contract for a
product that is out of date with a pending new 3G
model iPhone just around the corner,” Mr. Callaghan
added. |
