On a very optimistic note I do want to charge my phone (iPhone) anywhere with any phone charger. It's a wild dream for now, but come January 2012, if what the 17 mobile operators and manufacturers' commitment comes true we'll see only one common charger for all mobile phones on this earth. At present, the concept is somewhat like one mobile one charger, which contributes to churning out more than 51 thousand tons of waste a year.
The companies committed to the cause of implementing Universal Charging Solution are AT&T, KTF, LG, mobilkom austria, Motorola, Nokia, Orange, Qualcomm, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Read More...
Confirmig reports and analysts' studies, Orange, iPhone's carrier in France has admitted that they have limited the speed for the iPhone 3G. They have reported that they have limited the speed for this 3rd generation phone to 384kbps while theoratically the iPhone is capable of reaching speeds of 700Kbps to 1.7 Mbps.
Not just the iPhone, every 3G device comes under this limit. (See here the story regarding same problems with the BlackBerry Bold ). However, come September, things might change for the better with Orange promising 1 Mb speed for the iPhone 3G latest by September 13th.
Continuing with the expansion of offering the iPhone through multiple carriers, here is more addition to the list with Poland. T-Mobile and Orange are not going to be the only carriers to bring iPhone to Poland.
There is this rumor going around here that Polkomtel and P4 are also vying to bring the handset to Poland. As Vodafone is a major stakeholder of Polkomtel, the decision really lies on Vodafone. For P4, in order to sell the 3G iPhone, it first needs to upgrade their internet device to be compatible with the fast internet network connection required for 3G devices.

iPhone makes its international debut today. The long wait for Apple fanatics worldwide has come to an end. However, the device is not being released in 70 countries as part of the July worldwide rollout.
Apple continues its stratagem of locking its device exclusively to a single telecom carrier in most of the countries.The iPhone service providers are AT & T in the United States, O2 in Great Britain, T_Mobile in Germany, and Orange in France.
Due to time differences, iPhones are on sale first in New Zealand, later Australia, then Japan and Hongkong.
Although Steve Jobs promised that the iPhone would be released in 22 countries simultaneously, it looks unlikely that the French will have their hands on the iPhone on July 11.
The French will have to wait six days longer, until July 17. This appears to be a deviation from the original plan. Orange doesn't explain why the delay. Maybe it has to do with July 14th being a holiday on account of Bastille Day?
