AMSTERDAM (Reuters)—Vodafone is in talks with Apple to launch the U.S. firm’s iPhone combined music player and telephone in Europe, and talks partly hinge on volume guarantees and subsidies, a Dutch magazine reported.

Apple demanded a guaranteed sales volume for the iPhone, which the British mobile operator did not want to give, Dutch magazine Bright said on its Web site late Tuesday.

CNNMoney’s Allen Wastler gives his take on the way Apple has been promoting the iPhone and the lack of access given to journalists.
