FNAC wants to distribute iPhone

Electronics retail chain FNAC is in discussions to distribute Apple Inc.'s iPhone handset in France, French daily Le Figaro reports Tuesday. The newspaper cites Denis Olivennes, head of the Fnac chain, as saying France Telecom SA's Orange brand's exclusive rights for the iPhone in France are "inadmissible." If the discussions are unsuccessful, FNAC plans to take legal action, the Figaro reports.
