Fans of the iPhone who haven’t wanted to jump over to O2 can rejoice. Orange has announced that it will begin selling the iPhone 3G and 3GS sometime later this year.

The provider declined to comment on a specific date range the device would hit its network. However, we can expect the handset to tip up in time for holiday shopping.

The only other thing that is unknown about the offering on Orange is exactly how much it will cost. I would imagine Orange at least matches the O2 offering.
