Gonna hold out until end of July or maybe even till Christmas. You know all these new phones end up having a few problems so i'd rather wait till they are all ironed out

Should have mine tomorrow morning, wanted it on release day since I've put up with my shite Samsung until beginning of the year and have resisted various Blackberry, 3GS and HTC phones in the past few months. The T-Mobile guy told me that it would be a couple of week minimum until they could supply me with one... so I got my PAK code and am off to Orange tomorrow, been with T-Mobile since they were One2One as well, but the guy in the shops attitude totally reeked so I'm sacking them off.


Cheers,
Grant

Got a call from O2 today asking if i would like one sending out to me tomorrow! Currently Paying Ł50 a month so the 16gb one is costing me Ł30! wouldnt have minded getting a 32gb but having had the 8gb for 18 months i think 16 is going to be more than enough! so yeah proper cant wait! already have the new software on my 3G but little sluggish but i have high hopes for the new one! roll on tomorrow!

Doesn't matter mate. T-Mobile and Orange have joined forces and both dodgy as fuck. Some cunt managed to take out 2 3GS on my name with Orange since T-Mobile joined up with them. And i know its someone from T-Mobile cos thats the only bill i have thats on a different name and the Orange phones were on that exact same name.

Be careful with those 2 networks. I wouldn't trust them for shit and the customer service is fucking horrible aswell.

Sounds like a pretty shitty time you've had of it bud, although, as I said; I've been with T-Mobile since they were One2One and thats been years and years since the change over... never really had a big problem with their service or costs in that time either, I'd have stayed with them if they could offer me the phone on launch day, but they couldn't and the guy in stores attitude was absolute crap so I'll sack them off.

I'd have gone with O2, but they're not letting new customers have the phone for about 4 weeks.. so they can sod off too!!

...and I'm not roy keane on Vodaphone or Tesco Mobile, so that sorta leaves me with very little option?!

Grant

I'm going with Vodafone cos they have the better deal this time round. 02 are ripping people a new one with capping the internet allowance and asking for a additional Ł10 for another 500mb.

FOOOOOOOOOKERS!!!! lol

Version 4 O/S upgrade for me. Contract expires next month as I had one of the first 3G ones out. Evo 4 on Android next for me.

Just downloaded the jailbreak for it too as that was holding me back from upgrading the O/S.

Got mine. Never really used my old one and was never much of a fan, but the new one is a vast improvement. Still wasn't expecting the camera to be much kop, but it's actually not bad.

Only thing is it doesn't seem to fit the hand very comfortably, but guess I'll get used to it.

I have a quick question if anyone can help

It was my ipod touch but i dont want this happening to my iphone

What happens if the computer the itunes is on breaks down and you have to formatt it and install itunes

I did the authorise thing and when i synced it, it deleted all my music and apps etc

If say i have my iphone with loads stuff on it and the laptop needs formatted, how do i transfer it from iphone to computer without it deleting it?

Walk up to the line of queing ppl, while talking on your phone, ask what they are queing for.
