£90 per year (premium version) is rather a lot of money to insure 1 gadget, but there again if you are clumsy, careless, or forgetful, it could well be worth the peace of mind. 
If you were to do some damage in the first two years then yes, it's worth it. Anytime after that it isn't because you've basically paid insurance for two years and I think that comes close enough to the price of the new phone.
In other words, if you screw it up the first year it would be a great deal because it would have cost you less than the price of the new phone should you need to replace it yourself.

You can probably take out a policy with your homeowners insurance and it'll be way cheaper than that. My $2300 Macbook Pro only costs me $50/year to insure
Or take the insurance and download [for free] Firefox 3 and the British English dictionary!
Check the insurance covers water damage, I've dropped a few phones down the toilet in the past!!
Will there be insurance for the iPhone 3G over the pond on AT&T? Seeing as it is being treated more like every other phone/smart phone it should, but you never know. Has it been announced whether or not insurance will be available yet?
