This makes me so happy to the annoyingcoonts at work who got the 2GiPhone and went on and on and on about how great it is , yet it was ok that it was only 2G, and they all had to swap networks etc... to O2s poor tarrifs 
2G or 3G i stillthink there pap!

give it a year or so and a few revisions and the iPhone will be worth having.

yeah exactly what i said to the guys at work.
I suppose its the same with all phones, even the N95, i would like an 8Gb one but im not that fussed as i can put bigger cards in it, just the iPhone currently lacks to much!!
Dont get me wrong its sexual to look at and pose with.... but thats all its good for!!

Very nice, unfortunatelky its also untrue 
We turned down the revenue share agreeement hence why we pulled out of negotitations so i cant asee us changing our minds to sell a 3g version

well what ever its on the way and a network will have it, im just happy as whn the dudes at work read it they will be pissed haha.
Thing is in a years time when it has decent features, where will the likes of Nokia etc.. be?
Rumour has it Nokia is dropping the Symbian OS in favour of a Google Interface, now google are big players and i can see that going very very well (if true)

i just mean, apple dont want it to get out, and will have given strict instructions for it to be kept quiet, regardless of how open voda is they wont risk losing the new iphone by letting everynoe know, cos for a start you'd be staright on here telling all of us about it
