And, do you really get unlimited web surfing included in the monthly rate?

I never surf the web with my current phone, too tight :Whistle: but, would be interested if the iPhone contract allows it

Reading on their website they say that unless you are due an upgrade don't call cause you won't get one, only when it's due :argh:

I hope so cause I have been milking the internet since I got it :laugh:

It is an absolutely brilliant phone though, so easy to work. Just a shame it doesn't do mms and the camera isn't brilliant.

Ooh, they've changed the wording since i last read it :computer:
Exisiting business tarrif customers may upgrade early if they have been with O2 for longer than 12 months, that'll be me then.

Last question, there is mention that you can log onto hotspots thoughout the UK, is that the primary way of connecting to the internet?? or is it via satellite

I log on to the internet either usinf wi-fi at home
I used a hot spot in a cafe once in aviemore worked fine

or just by using 3g.

Well I got mine yesterday and I absolutely love the thing. Not using it as my main phone just yet as I'm waiting for my old number to be transferred but can't help but keep it on me at all times to play with.

The App store is tremendous....another piece of kit by Apple that just simply works, and so easily! The best app by far - Saber Phone - the ability to turn your iPhone into a real working lightsaber. Pointless yet utterly cool! :cool:

Tom Tom app set to ship within 2 weeks - NICE :yes nod:

I think by that it means unlimited web surfing through Wi-Fi - a sort of draw in for people who don't really understand the difference between accessing the internet via 3G and Wi-Fi. But I could be wrong....we'll see when the first bill comes in!!

no it's unlimited internet surfing as I understand it using 3g.

I'm on the £35 a month package and never once been charged more than that and surf using 3g and previous on the 1st generation.

from reading the stuff on-line it states web browsing (data and wifi) so that would include GPRS/3G or WiFi.....

From o2's website...........

All tariffs include unlimited browsing on your iPhone, unlimited Wi-Fi access, visual voicemail and reduced roaming rates with our International Traveller Service and are subject to a minimum term contract of 18 months.

I think it'll take the cheapest option available to it, so if someone's wi-fi is switched on nearby it'll connect to that :eek: but if protected it'll switch to 3g automatically, at least that's the way i read it :computer:
Anyway, none in stock online :frown:
