KT is one of the South Korean carriers that wants a piece of the iPhone pie, but they had problems till now with the strict regulations of the country. In case you didn’t know, in spite of being a very technologically evolved society, South Korea still applies policies that require the presence of a custom software layer in order for the user to connect to data services.
This layer gave local companies Samsung and LG a monopoly over the local market and very little room for competition from the foreign handset makers. However, restrictions have been loosened lately, so local carriers must be rubbing their hands impatiently waiting to have the iPhone in their grasp.
There’s still a “technical ban” keeping Apple’s handset at bay, but we guess that KT will manage to score the iPhone till the year end. What do you think?
