Submission + - Telstra to Apple - "Stick to your knitting"
curmi writes: "The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Telstra, Australia's biggest telecommunications company and previously hot favourite to add the iPhone to their network, has told Apple "Stick to your knitting" with regards entering the mobile phone business. Telstra's operations chief says of the iPhone "I think people overreacted to it — there was not a lot of tremendously new stuff" and suggests that other mobile phone manufacturers will have similar functionality soon anyway. With Telstra having the only EDGE network in the country, will this delay access to the iPhone in Australia as Apple updates the hardware for 3G networks?"
