iPhone 3G officially in UAE

Etisalat officially launched the Apple iPhone 3G in UAE yesterday. When do you think is Vodafone going to sell it here?
Looking at the rates, it is quite expensive! The basic cost of 8GB iPhone is Dh2,646 while 16GB costs Dh3,090 under Postpaid Plan 1 for one-year contract. You usually get the iPhone with a plan in the US much cheaper than this. Much much cheaper. US$200 for a 8GB and US$300 for a 16Gb for a 2 year contract. Then you can create your own package in terms of calls and text messages and data. Minimum would probably be about US$40 or about QR150 per month of use. Paying QR1100 for a 16Gb iPhone and then QR150/month would be reasonable. But look at the rates Etisalat is charging! Absurd! Do you think Vodafone is going to charge the same here in Qatar once it launches the iPhone?
