no GPS for iPhone 3G in Egypt

Dec 10, 2008 gps navigation, phones

Remember when we talked about the Egyptian government ban on GPS devices? Well apparently Apple complied and now is offering their iPhone 3G without the GPS feature there.

Say for example you compare the iPhone page for Turkey and Egypt and you’ll see that Apple has conveniently left out GPS from the Egyptian side.

Make sure you check out the NY Times article on this.
