Yeah, 5000 iPhones would take a hell of a lot of storage space. Even the largest stores would struggle with that. If the current box size is used 5000 iPhones would take up a HUGE space... and this would be a huge security risk. Imagine the losses (5000 * £300 = £1,500,000!). I think its going to be more like 500 phones, but then depending on store size! Wasnt there a stock checker (at least in american apple stores) to say when the next iPhone delivery was?
I think this is just some smart-alec salesman trying to be all nice so that you come back and see him and line his pocket with commission.
I'd really like to know how they quantify this......he went on to tell me that Jailbreaking and unlocking has cost O2, £7million this year, so will be clamping down on this greatly.
Well that's not true either - all the gen 1 iphones are week stamped in the serial number. If you buy one they are rarely more than two-three weeks old. They certainly haven't been sitting around in an O2 store since launch day.
Don't you remember the issues about different firmware versions in OTB phones?
Apple will only be selling the Pay as you go Tarrif, he went on to tell me that Jailbreaking and unlocking has cost O2, £7million this year, so will be clamping down on this greatly.

number of phones sold minus number of phones not activated on o2 network maybe?![]()
i pre-ordered mine like 2 weeks ago on the german T-Mobile page and they even guarantee a HOME delivery on july 11 for the first 1.000 ppl
There has been some talk that O2 may promise a home delivery on the 11th of July for U.K. upgraders. I hope that this is so.
3, The opening times are still not fixed, but the time proposed at the conference was 7am July 11th 2008.
posted by me at www.BuyMeAniPhone.comMe:Hi
Manager: how may i help you?
Me: I just wondered if you knew what time the iPhone 3G will launch?
Manager: Its definatly 7 AM, but its a bit up in the air.
Me: What Do You Mean?
Manager: Well, the centre usually opens at 10AM, so we are working with the managers to get it to open early for us. If not then it will be 10AM.
Me: SO its the same time nationwide. 7AM
Manager: Yes. Although some centre stores may be affected.
From the o2 forum. I have my doubts about the 16gb iPhone 3G not been sold from launch day.
- The black 8gb version will be the only version to launch on the 11th
[/I]
- iPhone customers can only upgrade direct through online/customer services NOT INSTORE
- The black 8gb version will be the only version to launch on the 11th
I agree. It seems clear to me, if members of Mac Rumors are a reliable indicator, that the 16GB model is likely to be the more popular model.That would seem a bit odd as I would have thought the 16Gb would be the one most people would go for. As with the launch of the original iphone, the smaller (4Gb) model was pretty unpopular and was eventually discontinued.

Wow, I've just had a look around the net. My info is now on many tech Websites and forums. Apparently someone rang o2 themselves and they have denied it.
