I can’t read German, but Reuters can, and it appears that Deutsche Telekom (or T-Mobile) has pulled off a coup … at least for now they’re the only carrier announced to have the iPhone in Europe … Germany to be specific.

Without citing sources Rheinische Post said in a preview of a story to be published on Wednesday that T-Mobile is expected to sell the iPhone exclusively with a T-Mobile contract for around 450 euros ($612) starting Nov 1. Source: Reuters

We Say: Apparently Vodafone had the inside track until the last moment, when T-Mobile clinched the deal. Still unknown who will carry the iPhone in the rest of Europe.
