haven't seen any Arabic iTunes Store either....there are anyway many iPhones around MENA region

apart from iTS the biggest hurdle will be to apply Apple's model to local regulatory conditions - TRA will not allow handset exclusivity and 1-2 year contract as it is elsewhere

Austrian tariffs are OK, better then O2 Ireland (that's the biggest rip off I've ever seen in telco)
