Apple to sell iPhones in France unlocked
Voila. Finally, Steve Jobs gave-up to the France law. He will also sell the unlocked iPhone in French. The locked version will cost €399, but the unlocked’s price has not yet been announced by Apple.
The move comes after Apple met a roadblock when its international policy of banning unlocking was challenged by French law. A French telecommunications law, passed in 1998 states that manufacturers must offer to unlock consumers phones for a small fee for the first sixth months after release, and for free after that, as reported via French news site Les Echoes.
