A few hundred Germans become Europe's first "official" iPhone owners

After handing out hot coffee, tea and pretzels for those waiting outside, T-Mobile's well lubricated and exceptionally tanned staff in Cologne threw its doors open to Europe's first "official" iPhone owners. Of course, people the world-over are already toting Apple's finest courtesy of those firmware hacks and unlocks. In fact, the 1.1.2 firmware found on the UK and German iPhones is already hacked. Judging by the buzz in the Hackint0sh forums, the new Jailbreak is seemingly just hours away from release. Fanatics of the hardcore persuasion can check the orderly mayhem in the video after the break.

They look like the ganguro http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganguro fad that was all the rage in Japan years ago.

What will be interesting will be to monitor the success of the iPhone in Europe... Even more interesting will be to see what will happen when the iPhone will be sold in France where it will be legal to purchase an unlock iPhone.
