Question Why does VM not support the iPhone in this country

Why does VM not support the iPhone in this country when they do in others? I just come across Virgin Mobile Australia site
Where you can not only get the mini sim but the iPhone 4s as well.

The micro sim will be coming to Virgin in June, so I can see the possiblility of the iphone coming to Virgin Mobile.

While all the companies are called Virgin Mobile, they are not the same company. Richard Branson as leased the name to different companies.

VM posted on Facebook shortly after it was announced, that they will be carrying the S3. Didn't say when though.

The only thing with the Samsung S3 is that the screen is huge, seems we are kinda going back to when the first "brick" mobile arrived....
