Vodafone -iphone 4 commotion

What was the big fuss at Vodafone Villaggio yesterday all about?
Did Vodafone bring Apple’s latest iPhone to Doha already?
Are you one of the many people who brave the crowd just to get this gadget.
.
Is it locked up with a contract...?
.
.
Can anyone buy the handset / phone only...?
.
?
.?
/.?
[please share,,,,,thankx,
I wont buy it!!!...
that has been apple policy. All the iphone4's sold in the GUlf will not have facetime. if it is there, it will be wiped out once you do the next OS update.
Dear All,
My iPhone was loaded with iOS 4.0.1 it had facetime in it after upgrade to 4.1 facetime erased from my iPhone. I purchased my iPhone in Vodafone qatar for 3359QR 32 GB IPHONE 4.
If any updates on when Facetime will be re-enabled please update here.
very disappointed because it worked first and also the vodafone brochures in stores mentioned about FACETIME. I wanted to speak with my family and friends but now I can't. Truly disappointed at least if Vodafone would have cautioned it would have been helpful about this issue.

its not necessary, if you will buy unit with sim even though you can use another sim also, you have just only click to change the network.
for all iPhone 4 users and want to have one:
Vodafone Qatar
Hi Everyone - Here's the latest update on FaceTime.
"FaceTime will not be enabled on the delivery of iPhone 4 devices that have been received by Vodafone Qatar. We are working closely with Apple to resolve the issue. Vodafone Qatar would l...ike to assure its customers that we are treating this matter as urgent and we will keep customers posted on any developments."
More information to come as soon as it is available.

I did and I am going to cancel it at end of month or credit, which ever come first.
and will use my existing VF Number (micro-sim)
I recommend to go for it.
The bundle includes :
280 QR Talk Time
300mb Free Internet
5 Hrs of Free talk time VF to VF
and 50% off on any star no
khana did you opt out of the 220 flexi option?
I got Mine:)
still learning..
but its cheaper and as said by alza3m
is a contract necessary? is there an option to not accept the sim card?
so if we buy only the unit we can use any network sim other than vodafone?
its really cheaper than those sold in dubai.
Alza.....u think it's weird...who cares.!
....ive read about it sometime ago,
but didnt know it was gonna happen yesterday.
.
Nice Vodafone!
well its cheaper than even buying from uk apple store. Hence the commotion.
i dont think (as of the moment) we can buy just the unit of iPhone 4 from Vodafone Qatar. it comes with flexi 220 and saving 295 QR from iPhone 4 16GB for 2,850 QR and iPhone 4 32GB for 3,359 QR SRP (Standard Retail Price).
it's unlocked to use with any sim cards that you have. but it's not jailbroken and they don't jailbreak iPhones.
Its really weird that you dont know by now ,,
they have been advertising it for weeks
here is why its better to buy it from vodafone:
Its cheaper 2850 for 16GB and 3350 for 32Gb which is about 500QR less than other retailers
it is factory unlocked : use any SIM card u want
if u r on freedom package you get 220QR credits and 300MB internet
hope this helps ,,
