Bundles for T-Mobile Austria, O2 Ireland found in 1.1.4 firmware

New carrier bundles found inside iPhone software 1.1.4 suggest that O2 will be the device’s carrier in Ireland, and provide confrmation of support for T-Mobile Austria. Macity, which previously found evidence of Italian carrier TIM in iPhone software 1.1.3, reports that new bundles [Translated Link], named “O2_ie.bundle” and “TMobile_at.bundle” are present in the Carrier Bundles folder of the new software. Earlier this month, T-Mobile chief executive Hamid Akhavan said that the company would begin offering the iPhone in Austria in the first half of 2008, making the discovery of its bundle more of a confirmation than a revelation; we’ve previously heard little about a potential carrier for the device in Ireland. Macity suggests that the appearance of these bundles, coupled with Akhavan’s statement that the iPhone would arrive in Austria in the first half of this year, might mean a similar roll-out schedule for the device in Italy and Ireland.
