Orange Armenia, a subsidiary of France Telecom, officially presented
the iPhone in Armenia today. At the launch today, CEO Bruno Duthoit
said that bringing iPhone to Armenia was possible thanks to cooperation
between France Telecom and Apple.

The company will offer three models to its customers: the 8GB iPhone
3G will sell for 245,000 AMD (about $625 USD); the 16GB iPhone 3GS
will sell for 299,000 AMD (about $760 USD); and the 32GB iPhone 3GS
will go for 350,000 AMD (about $890 USD).

According to Orange Armenia Marketing Director Aram Lazarian, the
company will be offering four tariff plans with the sale of their
phones. Furthermore, he said, the iPhone will only work with an Orange
SIM card.

Duthoit didn’t wish to mention how many iPhones the company plans
to sell in Armenia, saying that that’s a trade secret between Orange
Armenia and Apple. He did note, however, that the company could sell
a few hundred of these phones.
