T-Mobile is getting in on the iPhone Track. T-Mobile Germany is now releasing unlocked iPhones. It is even possible to get an unlocked iPhone without signing up with T-Mobile, and as announced on November 21, 2007, T-Mobile will be selling iPhones without a contract or SIM.
T-Mobile has been selling selling the iPhone in Germany for 399 euro and a lock in period of 2 years. This was done after months of testing and seeing that T-Mobile was the only wireless subscriber in Germany capable of handling the features on the iPhone.

T-Mobile’s policy was contested by Vodafone and they filed a case against T-Mobile because Vodafone believed that T-Mobile’s policy of marketing the iPhone on a contract was against German Law. As a result, T-Mobile was served a temporary injunction and was informed by the court that they had until November 21, 2007 to change their policies regarding the sale of the iPhone.
T-Mobile Germany has said that they will contest the injunction, but until the case is reviewed a couple of weeks from now, T-Mobile has no choice but to comply.
