Apple's long-awaited iPhone arrives in Britain

For many gadget geeks it is the most exciting piece of technology yet to emerge from Apple. Less than three months after its release in America prompted a flurry of sales and spread panic among competitors, and less than a fortnight after the launch of the sixth-generation iPod Touch, the iPhone is launched in Britain today.

Steve Jobs, Apple's founder and CEO, has announced that Apple's first mobile telephone will be distributed on the O2 network at branches of The Carphone Warehouse nationwide. The iPhone, with its video-messaging, wi-fi connectivity and touch-screen features, was first released in the US on 29 June and soon became the most talked-about handset in the world, selling more than a million units in its first two months.

The phone has all the standard functions of mobile technology currently available in the UK, but also includes the unique features of Apple's iPod, a digital music player.
