Jahjah promises iPhone users "thousands of dollars" saved over the two year contract

The teaser is low on detail, but explicit: on Monday next week, "Jajah will make an announcement that will save users 87 percent more money per minute on their global iPhone calls."

The mobile TV company, which uses Flash to transmit near-live video to ordinary phones, would normally be excluded from the iPhone, which doesn't support Flash video. But, says the company, it will be covering the deluded fans as they queue up, starting this evening at 6 PM New York time.

"Video coverage of the madness on www.JAJAHTV.com," today's announcement promises, will include pictures of "the anxious iPhone souls braving the long lines at the New York Times Square and San Francisco Apple stores."

Why? "In advance of Jahjah's upcoming iPhone announcement (Monday, July 2) the Voice 2.0 upstart will videotape the iPhone revolution -- and catch users before they sign up for the pricey and unnecessary AT&T international plan," the release boasts. "Jahjah will save users 87 percent more money per minute on their global iPhone calls."

It continues: "Apple is known for innovation, and the launch of the revolutionary iPhone is anticipated to be massive. So why the stodgy, expensive AT&T rate plan? Forget the long lines, high demands and expensive price tags...Jahjah can save iPhone owners thousands of dollars over the life of their two-year contract."

Monday, of course, is the date of the announcement (NOT shipment!) of the European iPhone. Is JahJah plugged into that? Will it be a better deal to buy a European VodaIphone or T-iMobile iPhone or CariPhone Warehouse iPhone? Watch this space...
