FRANKFURT -(Dow Jones)- A Hamburg court will hear the case on T-Mobile Deutschland's German marketing rights for Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) iPhone November 29., the court said Friday.
Vodafone Deutschland, a unit of Vodafone PLC (VOD), earlier this week filed an injunction with the court, requesting a legal assessment of T-Mobile's marketing rights to the iPhone.
Vodafone objected to the fact that the iPhone can be used only on T-Mobile networks, and questioned the company's pricing packages, which were tied to binding contracts with T-Mobile.
Following a court order, T-Mobile has made changes to its iPhone offer, but has said it expects its marketing model to hold up in court.
T-Mobile is a unit of Deutsche Telekom AG (DT).
