Rumours are mounting that Vodafone will be the UK mobile partner for launch of iPhone later this year.
It has been claimed that a brittish user last week used an US bought Apple iPhone to make the first known phone call on Vodafone’s network. The hacker purchased a prepaid AT&T card in the US, and was then able to have that SIM card enabled by Vodafone staff through the expedient of putting it inside a device already supported by the UK network.
He then swapped the now-active SIM into his iPhone, which he activated using easily available hacking tools.
News of success making a call using Vodafone’s network emerges after Vodafone Group chief executive Arun Sarin said: “The iPhone is clearly a good, software-driven device, but we’re concerned about wideband area coverage. 3G (capability) is something we look forward to and hope Apple moves forward to soon.”
