CultofMac has published an exclusive report stating that T-Mobile USA is very close to getting the iPhone in the fall.
According to a highly placed source at the wireless company, talks between Apple and T-Mobile are at an advanced stage with an 80 percent likelihood that the T-Mobile will get the device in Q3.
The source works at T-Mobile but asked not to be quoted directly and to remain anonymous because they aren’t authorized to talk to the press. T-Mobile’s parent company, Deutsche Telekom, which carries the iPhone in Germany, was able to influence, the source said. T-Mobile USA is the fourth-largest U.S. carrier with 33.7 million customers.
Although most of the discussion involving another carrier centers around Verizon, some analysts think it would be simpler for Apple to go with T-Mobile given its use of similar cellular technology. Also, Verizon has strongly aligned itself with Google, heavily marketing Android phones, and even mocking Apple and the iPhone.
