They might have coverage in some outback areas, but are farmers the target market for the iPhone? :) I would think Virgin, Vodafone and 3 with their young and hip advertising would appeal to the kind of people who want iPhones. However, I suppose that if Telstra doesn't play well with Apple, your iPhone might only be usable where 3G coverage is available from your provider's network or something like that? Here in Adelaide, I suppose that would mean you could only use your iPhone at the airport or in the CBD, unless of course you don't intend to use it as a phone, just as a gimmick for people to ooh and ahh over.

A friend had just bought it. It is a nifty little device and, in MidWest America at least, a chick magnet. I saw my first iPhone last week at Origins. A friend had just bought it.
