iPhone Risk: Latin American Landslide!

First Canada, then 10 Vodafone-serviced countries spanning Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania, now Engadget brings word that Mexico-based America Movil has announced it will be bringing the iPhone not only to its own home town, but to potentially all the 16 Latin American and Caribbean countries/territories/protectorates it provisions!
These include Mexico, Brazil, Columbia, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, the United States (almost certainly off limits because of AT&T), Guatamala, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, Ecuador, Peru, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and Chile.
And the Phone Different Jumbotron now reads:
| Europe | North Am. | South Am | Asia | Africa | Oceania | Antarctica | Total | |
| Launched | 5 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 6 |
| Announced | 5 | 2 | 15? | 1 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 26 |
| Rumored | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 4 |
| Total | 12 | 5 | 15? | 2 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 36 |
As with the other recent announcements, no details were provided as to when, how much, or whether or not there would be exclusivity or anything approaching special (read: reasonable) unlimited data plans. It also leaves another pressing question:
Who’s next?!
