    vodafone are shit. i have the n97 and desperatly awaiting the new software update to fix a few faults with the phone caused by nokia. now nokia released the software ages ago but vodafone are holding it back. phone will work fine after this but has had quite a few things wrong with it so far. so keep getting texts from nokia saying to update but vodafone wont let me. might just debrand phone actully.

    could do with some clarification on this, does this mean the iphone will no longer be provided by O2?

    O2 are getting exclusive rights to the palm pre (apparently better than the iphone). the htc hero/t-mobile g2 is apprently better than both due to its use of android.

    i wouldn't bank on it. at the end of the day, it's still an ipod, so it's still going to have the £100 price tag.

    Plus why would Orange & Vodafone offer it for less than 02. Peeple have prooved they are eaily led and want an iphone and will pay over the odds for them in terms of paying for the phone and paying £35 a month.

    They'd be daft to charge less when people will pay that. Their main draw is that their own customers won't now want to leave and go to o2 just for an iphone.
