The U.K. iPhone 4 Thread

I wish the networks themselves would get their website updated and I seriously hope orange are going to be offering pre orders today even if it is just online 🙁
It's annoying me now lol!
Especially as I want a contract one!!
And it didnt help that orange text me when I was half asleep at 6.30!! I got excited and woke up and then realised it was a text saying you can now have another magic number.. Grrr!!

Good plan!

Seriously though, it's worth having to be able to cut down those cheap data pre-loaded cards on eBay for use in the iPad.

Looks very similar, if not the same. They both have a delay in shipping too which is a bit strange considering it just looks like a modified/glorified stapler.

I suspect there is a massive batch being made in China or someplace. I have sen prices for £15 to £30 for it. They will probably flood the market with them quickly and the price will drop to a fiver on ebay.

i will be starting work at lunch-time today.

ps - are all you guys pre-ordering or are some of you, like me, waiting to see the black and white in the flesh before deciding? if i was to pre-order via o2 or apple and select black, and then change my mind and ask them for white before launch, do you think they would change my order?

hmm not too sure. Especially as there will no doubt be limited stock.

I totally agree, although I'm pretty sure that when I ordered mine they were rather dubiously claiming that they were hand made!

They are probably worth no more than about £5.

EDIT: They do indeed claim in this article that they are hand-made:

Not sure, but they wont have them to see in the flesh until launch anyway so you wont have any luck trying to see one in the flesh before launch.

pyep - that's why i will end-up having to do i reckon. i have a very small Apple k,[0mReseller very close to me and i think i'm pretty much decided that i will visit them on the 24/6. with some luck they will have some on launch...they had 3gs's on launch-day last year apparently....

Do those work? I saw a 12gb one on ebay for £40 odd and that works out to be a really damn good deal.
