They are offering it for the 3GS, no reason why they shouldn't for the iPhone 4
You're not serious, right? 😉
Also that page isn't new, I'm positive I've read it before.

This is new stuff to us (I think?), all the high res pics of iPhone 4 etc? There's a new landing paid dedicated to apps which is pretty snazzy too.
Thanks for volunteering 😉
Maybe they aren't all on the same servers then... maybe for example the US is on the same servers as some other countries, and UK as maybe the rest of Europe etc. so they just take down all stores so that there isn't like some random countries with access and others without...
Unless they really are trying to do a coordinated world wide release, in which case we wont be getting it until 11:00am because that's when it's today all over the USA (Hawaii being the limiting factor I think). I can't think that's likely though because on launch day they can't really expect to coordinate it like this with wanting to stick to shop opening hours otherwise Japan wouldn't be able to buy the phone until 7pm (or thereabouts, my calculations might be off by an hour or so). Then again, this is Apple, so you never know.

What with orange delaying pre orders last night and telling staff to keep checking the orange iPhone 4 interest page, and now apparently o2 delaying prices, this is making me think no one is allowed to show prices till apple does 🙁
i hope a 9am start on o2 will be good.
I've got everything ready, credit card.. everything.. awaiting for a carrier now.

Yes i know, I bought my 3gs last october this way. I think it was 4% back then tho.

It was 4% until a couple of days ago (not that I've been checking or anything...)
If im not interested in PAYG and only contract pre-orders, more specifically, Upgrades... is there any point of me waiting for anything here this morning?

figures! not only that, but i was late in filling out my o2 recycle thingy, only getting £228 🙁
Think so, what I am going to be doing is adding a second line to my account.. however you can upgrade via the my.o2 online.
This is weirder for the Japanese. It's coming up to 5pm in Japan and still nothing presumably. Given that all countries are affected, so people like Germany and France, not to mention Japan, are well into their working day, I don't think there is any significance whatsoever to UK 9am in Apple's timing to get the stores back up. I very much doubt that any of the networks are allowed by Apple to go live before the Apple store itself does.
