Is it a bird? Is it a plane?? No! It's... the iPhone

So we're finally getting it - Etisalat has snagged distribution rights for both the UAE and Saudi Arabia, through its Mobily subsidiary there.

The excitement...

Unfortunately for all those early adopters - especially the ones overly-fond of wafting their new advice ostentatiously in a lift (despite it not working there) - the cache-factor of Apple's shiny handset is about to go waaaaaay down.

So what you gonna pose with now, huh, huh, huh? Hah.

Interestingly, Etisalat may have also inadvertently tipped the wink as to the release of the next model of iPhone, according to AppleInsider: "The [newspaper] report went on to say that the 'next version of the device, which is due out in June, will be launched in the UAE at the same time.'"

I'm expecting to see EVEN MORE of the instantly-iconic touchscreen gadgets oh-so-casually being sported on desks of advertising creatives everywhere...

... unless something shinier comes out first.
