Vodafone First To iPhone 4 Sell-Out

Hoping to pick up a new iPhone 4 from Vodafone UK?  If you haven't already got your order in, it might be time to look elsewhere; the carrier has just updated their site with news that they've sold all the stock they have and aren't expecting any more until a couple of weeks time.

"We've seen huge demand for the iPhone 4 on Vodafone – we've sold everything we have at the moment. We have more iPhone 4s coming in the next couple of weeks. To make sure you are one of the first to get your hands on this fantastic new phone on our outstanding network, just place your order online and we'll send your phone as soon as we can. Once you've ordered, sit back and relax – we'll e mail you regularly about expected delivery dates. When your iPhone 4 is ready to be dispatched, we'll also contact you by email to let you know it's on it's way.

Our contact centres will be sharing the same information with customers who call – so please keep a look out for our emails."

We're guessing Vodafone won't be the only carrier to see their stocks dwindle down to bare boxes today; rival O2 tweeted earlier today that while all of their stores had iPhone 4 handsets in, numbers were very limited.  They're only selling one per customer, and you'll need to be an existing O2 subscriber – either mobile or broadband – in order to qualify.
