Opinion: Your call could not be connected

Opinion: Your call could not be connected

So, it’s official, Vodafone gets the Aussie iPhone contract. What that really means is when the iPhone finally reaches our shores it won’t work any place outside the capital cities and the odd stretch of highway in between them. Apple either doesn’t know or doesn’t care that the Vodafone network doesn’t work everywhere. I guess they’re used to that from their US experience. They probably think nobody’s network covers an entire country.
