Cheers. If you can wait 2 months for the new 4G one to come out then if you don't want that one you will get great deals on the 3gs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesaint sfc Posted 10 May, 2010 Share Posted 10 May, 2010 If you like, you can purchase my 3g model for the same price I paid for it when the 4g model comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 10 May, 2010 Share Posted 10 May, 2010 If you want a 3gs now then it would appear that Tesco mobile have the best deals. They start from £20 a month. Only a 12 month contract whereas the likes of O2 want to tie you in for 18 or 24 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 10 May, 2010 Share Posted 10 May, 2010 not true, sadly... you need a 24 month contract with tesco to get it "free", and then you need to be on the £45 a month tariff. To get the deal you are talking about, you still have to stump up £222 for the iphone, and thats just the 8gb one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 11 May, 2010 Share Posted 11 May, 2010 I see what you are saying, but everybody is charging silly money for the phone unless you do a 2 year contract. The Tesco deal is still a cracker as they are the only people offering a 12 month contract. Look at it this way. An 18 month deal from O2 will cost you £149 for a 16Gb phone and £35 per month giving 300 mins & unlimited Data & Texts. TOTAL £779 A Tesco deal for 12 months will cost you £320 for a 16Gb phone & £20 per month giving 250 mins & unlimited Data & Texts. TOTAL £560. I realise that the O2 contract is 6 months longer and you get a few more mins per month, but even if you did the Tesco deal and kept it for 18 months rather than 12 it's going to add £120 to the price making it £680 for 18 months. That's still £100 less than the O2 deal. Apple are a bunch or ****s really. They've pretty much fixed the price (which is illegal). It doesn't matter what you do, or where you go, long term it'll end up costing you pretty much the same amount. Over 2 years an i-phone will cost you about a grand.

Thedelldays Posted 16 May, 2010 Share Posted 16 May, 2010 my iphone is broke...keeps asking me to turn on the airplane mode.. ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonManager Posted 16 May, 2010 Share Posted 16 May, 2010 my iphone is broke...keeps asking me to turn on the airplane mode.. ffs Have you looked out the window - are you actually on the ground? Do you sleepwalk to local airports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajv2809 Posted 18 May, 2010 Share Posted 18 May, 2010 my iphone is broke...keeps asking me to turn on the airplane mode.. ffs Its a problem with the connector on the bottom of the iPhone. Its normally because moisture has erroded the connectors. Clean it with a soft bristled tooth brush. Normally this fixes the problem, if it still doesnt work you can disable the pop-up using Cydia, but its complicated and would stop you being able to play music through when dock.

trousers Posted 18 May, 2010 Share Posted 18 May, 2010 When is someone going to invent a data network that actually works consistently with the iPhone? It's a pile of cack. On my daily train journey up to London I get 3G coverage for about 10% of the journey. And When I'm walking around London I often get a 3G signal but no response whatsoever. Once again, an example of technology companies putting the cart before the horse. Get the infrastructure right before you start releasing hardware to use it FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the infrastructure right before you start releasing hardware to use it FFS To be fair, I've not had a problem with 3g reception at all on any of my various phones. I would therefore think that it's more likely that the iPhone has a crap aerial in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bridge too far Posted 29 May, 2010 Share Posted 29 May, 2010 I've got a number of apps on mine for my granddaughter. She's just 2 - she can press the button to open it up, slide the bottom bar to bring up the apps, choose the app she wants, press play to start the game / song and press the button to go back to the beginning. Two - and she can operate the phone better than a lot of adults I know Kids eh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
