He was deleted off SP after passing the kind of fanboy phase, and he pissed of a lot of admins, although he is a really nice guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7000370.stm woo for o2, I would consider one if it was Pay as you go, but at the moment £269 for the phone and then the CHEAPEST monthly contract being £35 a month on a 18 month contract you will spend AT LEAST £899 in the 18, and in my opinion no phone is worth that!

MikeC Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 That's a downright stupid price for a goddamn phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 furthermore the "super phone" dont support 3G only edge (which covers a massive 30% of the uk) And the £35 a month bundle only includes 200 mins! Many people are saying O2 and Apple seem to have cocked up here, I'm inclined to agree with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Well it's finaly here! The UK iPhone!As expected it is on o2, starting from £35 per month with unlimited data plan. The 8GB model will set you back £269 and will be avaliable from November 9th. That said only 30% of the UK has the 'EDGE' data coverage, so don't see how people are gonna be paying for something there not gonna immediately get...hmm. However I shall be at my Apple store opening day, the fanboy that I am. Woop.Posted again cos I'm cool.Seb: It isn't just a phone, it's an iPods, websurfey thing and everything else.Marc: Out of everyone I spoke to today about contracts, they said £35 is good. I agree. Edge is a simple upgrade at the phone towers and will be avaliable to the whole country by October 1st.Also you get free wifi at about 7500 spots around the country. Good to me. If you don't want to go on contract just unlock it and use it on pay as you go.They havn't cocked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 But your always going to be biased so you would say that, But the iphone whilst it looks nice lacks features phones have had for years, for example MMS messaging, Video capture and mp3 ring tones, also it dont support 3G, wi-fi is all well and good, but takes the "Mobile" bit out of it. For your £35 a month you get a poxy 200 mins and 200 texts, go to orange and for that much you can get 500 minutes and unlimited free texts? The "unlimited edge" for those lucky enough to get it is subject to a "Fair usage policy". Id much rather get a new nokia phone for free which supports all the features the iphone supports and more, and not at a stupid £900 price over 18 months.. which is another thing, you pay almost £300 for a phone and then your tied into an 18 month contract!And regardless if you like it or not, my phone which was under £100 can do everything the iphone can do and more, with the exception of having a touch screen, but I can certainly live without it.Although one good thing is my old 4 year old phone will be able to use its edge services now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Lacks being able to plague youtube with s**ty mobile phone videos. You can use MP3's as ringtones. Who give's a hoot about 3G? The coverage is terrible round here and is patchy in other places to. The edge network will be rolled out to the entire uk by October 1st. All data plans are subject to fair usage policys, 3, Orange, even my broadband. You get your nokia then, however your nokia isn't an iPod, surf the web dohikey and everything esle. iPhone is the first phone to do it right, no one can deny that, it's super easy to use and looks gorgeous.

Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Who gives a hoot about 3g? Phill**if the iphone had it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Nope, seeing as I cant use it in my area and would kill my battery life: ) Marc do you have 3G? Oh wait no you dont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 so what? Why could the iphone not have had both? Other phones manage in 3g where available and go to the gprs when not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Cos the 3G chip is power hungry and would recude the phone life to two hours, not much use. Your forgeting the iPhone is praticly a computer under the hood that needs power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Then maybe they should have thought abit more about making it a computer :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 My dads phone manages to last more than 2 hours, he also can watch live tv on his, send picture messages and not be tied into a 18 month contract which offers virtually nothing!

Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Does his surf the web like the iPhone? Does his have touch screen like the iPhone? Does his have a 3.5 inch display to power like the iPhone? No no no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Lacks being able to plague youtube with s**ty mobile phone videos. You can use MP3's as ringtones. Who give's a hoot about 3G? I do. My 6280 has everything the iPhone has bar touchscreen, ipod and wi-fi, whereas my hone has 3g, and it covers more of the UK! You get your nokia then, however your nokia isn't an iPod, surf the web dohikey and everything esle. iPhone is the first phone to do it right, no one can deny that, it's super easy to use and looks gorgeous. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It looks good, but the price cannot justify it.Oh and my phone can surf the internet. At 3G speeds. On Opera. And Windows Live Messenger. How much did I pay for it? £60, brand new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 How can you have 3G speeds when 3G isn't on o2, who you are with? Your using EDGE.Just because you have coverage, doesn't mean everyone else does. It is patchy.And your phone does not have an iPod, which is what makes the iPhone the iPhone.

Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Ok this is stupid, the "Ipod" is an mp3 player, just because it looks pretty, its still an mp3 player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Yes, but the iPod is the most functional easy to use mp3 player, thus there being over 150 million sold. My phone has an mp3 player, its terrible, and so are all the other mobile phone ones I have used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Terrible why? My phone can play mp3s in an order, shuffle, repeat which is pretty much all I use on my ipod :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
