Have heard that in France they will have to release an unlock version (to respect the law), so might be tempted to get one then next time I go home. Only problem is that on some mac forum they do mentioned that it will be sold at a premium price and that update would not work well with it

So really the best advice would be to wait for a couple of month and see what is coming up....... that said the Iphone is very very very tempting.............grrrrrrrr

I think the iPhone is a beautiful piece of technology, at a 'price' which really is not 'justified'.

Let's look at it from a cost perspective:

Cost of iPhone = £269 on O2
Lowest annual tariff price = 12 x £35 = £420
Total 1st year cost = £689 (200 included minutes & texts & unlimited data & appropriate WiFi connectivity with fair usage, using EDGE for data transfer, which currently only covers 30% of the UK)

That must be over an 18-month contract, but I'm not sure.

In my own personal view, this really is ridiculous, even though I'm in tears saying it. :sad0147:

I feel better now, because I'm only paying £10 a month on Virgin with 300 minutes + texts included.
