Was there really ever any doubt?

Oooh existing iphone owners can upgrade early to the new one until October according to the O2 site. I'm tempted there. I got an iphone a couple of months back when they dropped to £169 (but I got it for £69 courtesy of quidco), not overly fussed about the new one at the moment and I knew there'd be another one out soon enough. But it might be tempting depending on stock and money nearer October.
I've been very pleased with my iphone. Really easy to jailbreak as I was initially unsure if I would but it's added some nice functionality. It was nice to spend the train journey at the weekend watching a few films on it Only downside is it is a bit bulky for my liking compared to my w810i.
Never had an Apple product before but I like it

For me as a freelancer having net access is a must. I always hate going out to get shots to come home and find an email saying "Do you have this? Need it now!"

I sure am. Theres no other phone that has all the features, is as thin, has as big a screen, has the data tariff, works perfectly with iCal iPhoto and my Mac. n95 is a brick in comparison and sending emails via a numpad is laborious. The Diamond thing looks nice but the interface looks sluggish and that'd annoy me after 10 minutes.

Get the Iphone then, I am sure the 3G thing is what you've been waiting for.

I've had an iPhone for about 6 months now and I love it! Maybe I'm being thick but the 200mb bolton isnt necessary surely, it's got unlimited internet oojamaflip. The only downside I find is you can't be descreet with it.

Anyway, my tarif means I'll get a free upgrade to the 8gb 3G possibly pre-launch, 1200 minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited internet for £52 per month. Jobs a goodun!

I just checked and my contract doesn't expire until 14th December. Curse these 18 month contracts, it's the first time I've considered moving away and it's the first time I've had an 18 monther

If I'd had the usual 12 month jobbie it would have expired on Saturday

I plan on sticking with 12 months as long as I can get away with it. 12 month refreshes are about right, was only on 18 month once and didnt enjoy it!

Yep, I always stick with 12 months. Never had an 18 month and don't plan to try one if I can get away with it. The free Wifi access with the iPhone is a great deal too, but I still think the iPhone isn't really for me, although it's a tough choice. I think the software available for WM is pushing me that way.
