O2 claims two million iPhones in the UK

O2 now has two million iPhone customers in the UK, so the CEO of the company, Ronan Dunne, has been telling Reuters.

This is despite losing its exclusivity on the handset, which is now sold by Orange, Vodafone and Tesco.

Dunne also said that O2’s exclusive on the Palm Pre had helped buoy sales at the end of 2009.

Vodafone, for its part, reckons that it shifted 100,000 iPhones in its debut week with the smartphone, citing network quality as the major reason for those figures.
