A message on Swisscom Mobile's Web site, confirms the carrier will, eventually, deliver the iPhone in Switzerland. It's not the first mobile operator to announce support for the iPhone over the last week either.

“Swisscom is launching iPhone in Switzerland. The iPhone will be available later this year. We will inform you personally as soon as we have more news,” according to Swisscom, reports iLounge. which, with 5.1 million customers, is the largest mobile operator in Switzerland. You can register with Swisscom to receive more about this as it becomes available.

Earlier this week, Apple picked up four other wireless operators to deliver the iPhone. Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel) will ship the iPhone in Singapore, Bhariti Airtel in India, Optus in Australia and Globe in the Philippines later this year.

That news followed an announcement from Vodafone last week that the wireless carrier would be extending the iPhone's reach as well, by ten countries. Vodafone new iPhone markets include Australia and India, and, like Telecom Italia Mobile, which will also carry the iPhone, Italy. Additional Vodafone iPhone carriers include Czech Republic, Egypt, Greece, Portugal, New Zealand, South Africa, and Turkey.

All of these agreements will greatly increase the number of markets consumers can officially get and use an iPhone. It is likely all the new iPhone carriers will skip the current EDGE model and go right to the 3G edition that's due to come out this summer.
