Apple's iPhone goes on Sale in the UK and Germany on Friday with thousands expected to snap up the device.

Eager customers have begun queuing outside the Apple Store in Regent Street, London, despite the poor weather conditions.

But there are concerns that consumers are only able to use the phone with one mobile network.

In the UK the phone will only work on O2's network, while in Germany T-Mobile will support the device.

Sad, sad people! Gotta laugh at anyone who shows off their swanky new iPhone haha, everyone bar them knows they been had, may as well walk around with MUG written across their forehead!

Lol both Apple and o2... I think they have grossly over-estimated the value of the iPhone brand...

Although, im not sure how much o2 paid out initially to be honest, dont think it will have been more then a million or so cos Apple are getting a big chunk of the revenue.
