Ah, rumors. The latest is that Vodafone (VOD) will be the next distributor of the Apple (AAPL) iPhone. RIght now AT&T (T) wireless has the exclusive on the device in the US. Vodafone has a minority interest in Verzon Wireless.
Vodafone is the largest cellular sevice provider in Europe, and Credit Suisse has reported that the company may get the exclusive for marketing the ultra-hot handset for that region. If the iPhone upgrades to be able to work on 3G networks, it could have a very large market in the region. The current model works on 2.5 G.
Vodafone’s shares will likely to react to the news, early and unreliable as it may be.
