It was last updated at 18:33 on May 01 2008.</div> </div> </div> <div class="wide image"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Arts/Arts_/Pictures/2007/11/12/iPhoneNEW460.jpg" width="460" height="276" alt="iPhone"/> </div> <p>Mobile phone company O2 and high street retailer The Carphone Warehouse have sold out of the basic version of Apple's iPhone and will not be re-stocking their shelves ahead of the launch of the new version of the device over the summer.</p><p>There had been talk that O2, which has the exclusive rights to the iPhone in the UK, and Carphone Warehouse its sole independent retail partner, would be left with thousands of unsold phones when Apple unveils the next generation of the device later this year.</p><p>But last month it slashed the price of the basic 8GB version of the iPhone - which can store roughly 2,000 songs - by 拢100 to 拢169 and the phone has since sold out. Carphone Warehouse has also sold out of the larger 16GB version of the phone, which costs 拢329, although O2 still has some stock left.</p><p>In fact, Apple is believed to have stopped making the basic version of the iPhone while it puts the finishing touches to a new 3G version which could be unveiled at its Worldwide Developers' Conference in San Francisco in June.</p><p>The speculation - which Apple has refused to comment on - is that there will be a basic version of the new-generation phone in the US for $399 (拢200) and a 16GB 3G iPhone for $499. But network partner AT&T is expected to heavily subsidise the phones, reducing the price by $200 and taking the basic 3G device down to $199.</p><p>O2's move to drop the price of its 8GB version of the current phone followed the decision of Apple's exclusive network partner in Germany, T-Mobile, to drop the cost of the same phone to just €99. According to reports in the French press, Apple has been pushing Orange, owned by France Telecom, to drop the price of the device in its home market, where Orange is the exclusive provider, in a bid to boost sales.</p><p>Sales in the UK are believed to have far outstripped those in either Germany or France, with several hundred thousand sold since the iPhone went on sale in November. But iPhone sales in Europe have been nothing like as spectacular as in the US. Over the three months to the end of March, Apple shipped 1.7 million iPhones. While that figure was helped by the launch of the device in Ireland and Austria, the bulk of those sales were in the US. The company is still predicting, however, that it will sell 10 million by the end of this year. </p><p>The 3G version of the phone is expected to sell better in Europe than the previous iPhone, which many users found slow to access the internet over a mobile phone network.</p> </div> <div id="related"> <ul id="article-toolbox-side"> <li class="printable"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2008/may/01/apple.iphone/print" rel="nofollow" id="printlink" class="printable rollover" name="&lid={article}{Print}&lpos={article}{1}"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/static/51111/original/common/images/icon_print.gif" alt="Print this" class="trail-icon"/><span>Printable version</span></a></li> <li><a class="sendside rollover" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/email/333876458" id="sendlinkSidebar" title="Opens an email form" name="&lid={email-ARTICLE}{Basic iPhone sold out for O2 and CPW}"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/static/51111/original/common/images/icon_email-friend.gif" alt="Send to a friend" class="trail-icon"/><span>Send to a friend</span></a></li> <li> <a class="sendside rollover" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/share/333876458" id="sharelinkSidebar" title="Opens a share this page in a new window" name="&lid={share-ARTICLE}{Basic iPhone sold out for O2 and CPW}"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/static/51111/original/common/images/icon_share.gif" alt="Share this" class="trail-icon"/><span>Share</span></a> </li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/users/clippings/add?r2PageId=752300" id="clippable" class="rollover" name="&lid={clip-ARTICLE}{Basic iPhone sold out for O2 and CPW}&lpos={myclippings}{1}"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/static/51111/original/common/images/icon_clip.gif" alt="Clip this" class="trail-icon"/><span>Clip</span></a></li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/contactus/333876458" class="sendside rollover" id="contactlinkSidebar"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/static/51111/original/common/images/icon_email-us.gif" alt="Contact us" class="trail-icon"/><span>Contact us</span></a></li> <li class="resize"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227im_/http://image.guim.co.uk/static/51111/original/common/images/icon_font.gif" alt="Resize font" class="trail-icon"/> <a href="/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/help/accessibility" id="larger-sidebar" name="&lid={Signedin}{Text Larger}&lpos={Signedin}{6}">larger</a> | <a href="/web/20080503024227/http://www.guardian.co.uk/help/accessibility" id="smaller-sidebar" name="&lid={Signedin}{Text Smaller}&lpos={Signedin}{7}">smaller</a> </li> </ul> <div class="send" id="send-share-side"> <div class="send-inner "> <div class="share-top"> <h3>Share</h3> <span><a class="sendside">Close</a></span> </div> <ul> <li> <a class="digg" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.guardian.co.uk%2Fbusiness%2F2008%2Fmay%2F01%2Fapple.iphone&title=Basic+iPhone+sold+out+for+O2+and+CPW" name="lid={share}{Digg}">Digg</a> </li> <li> <a class="reddit" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://reddit.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.guardian.co.uk%2Fbusiness%2F2008%2Fmay%2F01%2Fapple.iphone&title=Basic+iPhone+sold+out+for+O2+and+CPW" name="lid={share}{reddit}">reddit</a> </li> <li> <a class="google" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://www.google.com/bookmarks/mark?op=edit&bkmk=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.guardian.co.uk%2Fbusiness%2F2008%2Fmay%2F01%2Fapple.iphone&title=Basic+iPhone+sold+out+for+O2+and+CPW" name="lid={share}{Google Bookmarks}">Google Bookmarks</a> </li> <li> <a class="yahoo" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080503024227/http://myweb2.search.yahoo.com/myresults/bookmarklet?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.guardian.co.uk%2Fbusiness%2F2008%2Fmay%2F01%2Fapple.iphone&t=Basic+iPhone+sold+out+for+O2+and+CPW" name="lid={share}{Yahoo!
