The U.K. and German iPhone launch weekend has seen heavy trading as many move to sign-up for an iPhone.
In Germany T-Mobile claims to have sold 10,000 of them by the afternoon of launch day.
In the UK, O2 reportedly managed an expectation-breaking 8,000 iPhone activations on the first day of launch, and has confirmed it's on a five-year exclusive contract with Apple. While 8,000 activations have taken place, actual sales may have been higher.
Reports claim a 3G version of the iPhone shouldn't be expected before the end of 2008. Analysts note that the lack of 3G support may limit the impact of the first-generation of the device in Europe, where mobile-savvy consumers are used to the luxury of the standard.
