T-mobile is happily married with Apple

Apple is expanding its market in other countries with the help of the non-exclusive contracts it made with various mobile service providers. While others are not so happy about the deal, the case is different for the T-mobile.

According to Hamid Akhavan, the current CEO of T-mobile, the non-exclusive deals of Apple with other companies do not affect their good working relationship. They are happy that Apple decided to make them the exclusive carrier of iPhones in Germany. And because of the smooth relationship between the two, Hamid Akhavan, is expecting that this would remain as is for long. All of these details are mentioned by Hamid Akhavan during the Reuters Technology, Media and Telecoms Summit held in Paris.

And if the U.S. partner of Apple, which is AT&T, is very much vocal about the much awaited 3G iPhone, T-mobile is still trying to be discreet about it. In the same event, Hamid Akhavan stated that if in case that Apple will be releasing a 3G iPhone, they expect that they would carry the said device in Germany exclusive as well.

T-mobile is currently distributing iPhones in Austria. However, unlike in Germany, it is no longer an exclusive contract between Apple and T-mobile. It was only last week that France Telecom made their announcement that they too, is selling iPhones in Austria.
