25,000 signed up for the iPhone 3G in Saudi Arabia

Despite lack of Arabic the iPhone 3G helped Mobily to increase their subscribers by 25,000. From Saudi Gazette: “In just a few hours of launch the number of walk-in customers and those who applied online reached 25,000,” said Ali S. Al-Dakhee, Mobily’s Youth Segment Manager.
This is not the number of actual iPhone 3G units sold though. Mobily has yet to announce their first day numbers. Etisalat hasn’t announced their numbers as well.
