Last week, Apple fanboys in Europe had a fieldday as the iPhone officialy made its debut in Germany and London.

Gizmodo via Reuters reported that Apple and Deutsche Telekom has inked a deal making the iPhone available in Germany via T-Mobile with a price tag of 399 Euros for the 8 GB model which is roughly $554. It’s a lot higher than the holiday pricing of the iPhone in the US, but I won’t be surprised if it’s lowered before the year ends.

In London, O2 has been named the official carrier of the iPhone, which will be available in the British Isles starting November 9. The iPhone will retail for £269 inclusive of VAT, or around $535. It’s still more expensive than the US price and still no 3G.

So far, the roll out of the iPhone is on schedule and the countdown till it hits Philippine shores is on. If you remember, it wasn’t long ago when the new iMac was launched first in Manila before any other city in Asia. So we’re keeping our fingers crossed and our hopes high that Apple will stay true to this trend and unveil the iPhone in Asia here in the Philippines.
