imageSales of the iPhone in the U.K. have fallen just short of the expectations of O2, the exclusive network for the handset, the Financial Times reports. O2 said shortly before the iPhone’s U.K. launch that it expected handset sales of 200,000 in the first two months.

However, people familiar with the situation told the FT the actual figure for the first eight weeks was about 190,000. O2 declined to comment on the sales figures but said it was “delighted with the response to the iPhone, which has seen unprecedented levels of customer satisfaction.” The mobile operator also confirmed the iPhone was its fastest-selling handset “by a significant margin,” according to the report.
