Apple taps MTS to bring iPhone 3G to Russia

Reuters reports that a “market source” has confirmed that Apple has finally sealed a deal to bring the iPhone 3G to Russia in an official capacity, launching on Mobile TeleSystems “likely” in Октябрь (October, that is). Neither MTS nor Apple would agree to comment on the situation — no surprise there —

but seeing how Russia is one of the remaining gargantuan markets where the iPhone has yet to materialize, it seems like a no-brainer deal for all parties involved.
