This morning Tesco Mobile announced that Tesco would be selling the Apple iPhone with Tesco Mobile SIM cards and tariffs.
Our push to get Tesco Finder (and soon, Tesco Grocery Shopper) into the Apple iTunes App Store was because of our desire to bring customers a great mobile experience of Tesco services in the knowledge that this news was coming (yes, I have to agree to ‘vows of silence’ on some topics of business sensitivity, even on this blog!).
The press release from Tesco Mobile:
25th November 2009
Tesco Mobile through its joint venture partnership with O2 is pleased to announce that it will shortly introduce iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in Tesco Phone Shops and online through Tesco Direct in the UK.
For further information and for customers interested in pre-registration please visit www.tescomobileiphone.com.
For more information on iPhone, please visit www.apple.com/iphone.
