3 Mobile Australia has surprisingly created a website to encourage Apple to become partners with them for their 3G iPhone Australia launch on July 11th.

Despite no current agreement between Apple and the 3 Network, the website will allow customers to register their interest in the iPhone, even though you can’t actually get it on 3 yet!

Vodafone and Optus are the two confirmed Australian networks currently able to offer the 3G iPhone at launch, though the 3 Network remain hopeful they will be able to strike a deal with Apple.

3 Mobile’s director of sales and marketing, Noel Hamill, said -

“Ever since Apple’s announcement that a 3G iPhone is coming, we’ve had lots of calls and e-mails from people wanting to get the value that 3 offers with the iPhone. We want Apple to see just how much our customers want the iPhone.”

3 Network customers can SMS the word iPhone to 333000 to receive a form allowing them to enter their comments directly from their mobile. They can also register their interest on this page, where they can also message Apple directly.
