Bonjour, je suis iPhone.  Yep, it’s true, the iPhone is French now.  Well, French too.  And British, and German, and American and soon to be a whole lot of other nationalities.  At any rate, it is officially official that the Apple iPhone has made its way over the sea, over the confusing political differences and into the loving arms of Parisians.

According to the article I just read on my good ol’ RSS feeder, “Orange, the mobile phone and Internet branch of France Telecom, has the exclusive rights to sell the Apple handset in the country that gave us Paris. Twelve outlets in France are offering the device for 749 euros today, before the full launch scheduled for tomorrow.” 

My question to you, all of you is this:  Will the iPhone have the impact there that it did here?  Will it spawn copycats?  Will it push other mobile phone designers to push their own limits?  What will the global impact of an American sensation be?  I’d love your feedback on this one, and I’d love to hear how all of YOU think the iPhone will help change global mobile warriors.  Global Mobile.  Cool.
