My spangly new iphone arrives tomorrow so i can see what the fuss is about. Can you download this through itunes now? I have NO experience of apple or itunes so am a total newbie.

The phone is also locked to vodafone and i'm on o2.

Ideally i want to unlock it properly through vodafone and not to bothered about jailbreaking. Should i be?! I'd rather not have hassle of pricking about with dodgy software!

It took about 20 mins to download and about 10ish to install for me!

It's well cool, i've gone from 5 pages of apps to 1 thanks to the folders! Still fucking about with it to be honest!!

There's a well cool thing in photos, you can sort by album or places, so you can see where on a map the pic was taken! Love it!!

I dout very much, you'd be losing alot more than you'd be gaining in my opinion.

Depends how much you've installed via the jailbreak i guess

True, but is that tight or sensible? lol


Well ok today i done my own spreadsheet taking into account buying outright and on 18month contract lol.

So far i think im going to go for Vodafone 18month Ł40 one as the cheapest over the term for my needs etc. Just waiting for others to publish their details.

See if tesco are doing a deal on one. I paid Ł320 up front on my 3gs and Ł20 a month for just 12 months. It worked out the cheapest option and tesco piggybacks o2 so it's still a good network

I did call a shop earlier and they said they could JB anything below 2.13 or was it 3.13 software? Something like that? Does that sound right numbers wise and is a new one likely to be that high?

Im not sure if i told them it was a 3gs hence not knowing the previous 3gs query i had.

Have you got the latest iTunes? It kept kicking me out till I updated. You need 9.2.

It's installing now, looking forward to seeing what it can do.
