T-Mobile forced to sell iPhone without a T-Mobile contract


Deutsche Telekom's T-Mobile are to allow customers in Germany to buy Apple's iPhone without having to sign a T-Mobile contract, after rivals Vodaphone obtained a court injuction against it.
T-Mobile planed to sell the iPhone without a T-Mobile contract for 999 euros at its outlets.
The move will allow those customers in Germany who bought an iPhone since November 19th, to unlock the device free of charge so it can be used with other SIM cards.
However, that will not enable customers to make use of all the functions that the music playing Web-browsing iPhone offers.
The court's injuction prevents T-Mobile from locking iPhone's SIM to T-Mobile when making a sale
