Another iphone question...
Yes another poxy Iphone question. Do you know when T mobile will be releasing it? AS interested to know when they will release price Tariff.
Any with vodafone? as to be honest they seem to be offering a better deal than O2. Just i have never been on their network.

All the tariffs are similier and so is the phone price. Main difference Ive found is the "Limited usage policy" of each company. O2 seem the lowest @ 500mb for the £35 tariff, with others like orange at 750mb.
T Mobile will be launching on the 24th my Mrs was told as O2 are not selling to anyone NOT already on an O2 tariff till end of July.

Then in 12 months, sell my iPhone4, have £450 in my back pocket and get the iPhone5 or whatever on a fresh contract.

I'm 12 months through my 3GS contract, so another 12 months to go. However, I have unlimited 3G on my current contract, just sold my 3GS for £435, so will just buy the iPhone4 on PAYG, cut my SIM up and use that in it.

Just been browsing EBAY and the 3G is still selling for £170-£180

Its anything Apple though. Even Macbook pro's that are years old still fetch similar money as to what they were new!
Thats why I will buy an iPad as well, cos come 12 months when the iPad 2 comes out, I'll still get pretty much all my money back!
Yeah heared that on O2 aswell!! Which sucks. Maybe will wait and see what T Mobile offer.
hows Vodafone for network and getting data over etc? Same question for T mobile? I have not had a "smart" phone for ages and had poxy works phone. Lossing that with new job so just in time for new I phone lol.

Someone told me the other day the HTC EVO will be better than the IPHone. I watch 3 videos on it and it did everything the IPhone did, so wasn't that impressed. Watch one video on FaceTime and decided to get the IPhone 
I bought my missus a 1st gen iPhone for £150 around Christmas, they are still going for around that.

It helps current customer's and will piss new customer's off, but they are trying to show loyalty to the old customers and new customers will think "I will join O2 and get it first next time" but they will have to wait now

I'm on o2 and very happy with them but missus is on vodaphone and I must say she gets far better coverage than me and very similar bills so it's much of a muchness really.as for the phone the only crap thing is the camera,I just can't imagine what it would be like without it now,it's awesome.there's really hardly any difference between 3g and 3gs although I've been told it's because mine is a late 3g.
Yeah just looks like another iphone copy cat, ok its got one or two different features but nothing to "wow" you or nothing that cant be added to the iphone via an app or a software update etc

And im talking 3G signal, if it cant find a 3G signal then it goes to 2G or whatever it is and its almost a full signal then.
Never really had a problem where i cant get a signal at all to be honest.
I guess it depends where you live, but 3 are meant to have the best coverage

it has a better camera with hd video function
the screen is amazing quality with the amoled
it is a 4 inch display but the phone is exactly the same sze as a iphone
android runs faster than the i phones system
there are plenty of apps available and they are all free unlike apple's
it can bluetooth with any device unlike the iphone
it will support java and other downloadable programs so you can watch things like you tube properly
it seems like apple were the market leaders with their technology a few years back but have stood still while the others have caught up and passed them. unless apple stops holding back i think they may start to lose sales
unless you just want one for the name/brand image
it may copy the iphone but it does a better job of it.

Better camera, have you seen the IPhone 4 has 5mega pixels and hd recording?
The retina display on the IPhone 4 is apparently one of the best out there?
4inch display would be nice for videos, but not important.
I only download free apps
and if you jailbreak it all apps are free.What do you need bluetooth for? to send music or picture files to your friends, email the pictures and tell them to pay for their own MP3's.
The YouTube app works fine on my IPhone? Some Java things don't work, which can be annoying, but nothing of importance to me.
Im open for having a better phone than the IPhone, but nothing has beaten it yet IMO.

My mind is not setup, just nothing out there IMO is better than the IPhone. I hope you like the Samsung as I have been using a D900 and have been for 4 years, was a good phone

Spoke to T-mobile and was informed of the tarriff, if you want the new i-Phone for nothing it wil be £45 a month for 24 months, if you only want to pay £35 a month your looking at a phone cost of around £200
Was told the HTC desire is the dog wotsits and is only second to the I-phone so worth a look
