iPhone 3G breaks cover, shows up in Swiss store display

by Joshua Topolsky, posted Jul 8th 2008 at 12:15PM

You probably saw this one coming, but with that massive slew of countries and partners Apple has wrangled for the new iPhone launch, that July 11th street date was bound to be neglected. So here you have it, courtesy of the french blog Gadget O'Mac, an iPhone 3G on display in a shop in Switzerland. While the shots may be blurry, we at least get to see this thing in the hands of someone other than an Apple employee, and coupled with that Portuguese leak, this should thoroughly whet your appetite for Friday. Check out a few more shots after the break.

[Thanks, Florence]

A reasonable way may not be forthcoming unless you're able to swing one from somewhere in Europe. Countries like France and I believe Italy enjoy legislation which demands that consumers are given the option of buying an unlocked device from operators, albeit on a pay-as-you-go wicket.

I'd love to get one myself - but it's always possible that the boys from Cupertino have managed to lock their baby down too tight this time what with the in-store registration and activation.
