UNABASHED Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 my upgrade cost is 20 quid, am very tempted to go ahead with this and upgrade to the new iphone. not seen anything out there that offers anything i like. internet limit doesn't bother me as i don't think im a heavy user. just wondering if i go for 18 or 24 month contract I'm going for it, but will go with an 18 month contract just in case anything better comes up in next year is it still scheduled for 24th June release?

Stream Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 I should be upgrading to the iPhone 4 from my current 3g iPhone with O2 after the 24th Me too, iPhone on pre order from Apple Should be here 24th. I went into an O2 shop to ask about the micro sim and was told that I can sim swap my current Sim to a micro sim and continue my current contract. What's the best way to connect an Iphone to the Bose stereo, although I have an 07 uk roadster, it has no built in Bluetooth , and no cradle either Ideally like to be able to play music and handsfree call.

Stream Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 Bin the Bose and get a decent head unit. Any suggestions ? I don't mind replacing the Bose. Quote

UNABASHED Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 just realised that the iphone4 doesn't have FM Radio - something I thought they were supposed to be implementing this time around! Gunna have a wee look at the Desire and see how they compare, although I'll still probably go for the half eaten fruit! Quote
Dene8 Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 o2 only selling to current o2 members up to end of July, Seems only fair to me....... Quote
Zedrush Posted June 23, 2010 Author Posted June 23, 2010 o2 only selling to current o2 members up to end of July, Seems only fair to me....... lol, my dads with 02 so i told him to get me one under his name he will just have to wait till end of july for his one Quote

Gunna have a wee look at the Desire and see how they compare, although I'll still probably go for the half eaten fruit! i have a desire, i believe for definite that its better than the iphone. my sister has the wonder dog and its always dropping calls and crashing. i love my desire and its about £250 cheaper, plus with a bit of haggling can get some really good price plans. i love my desire, plus, soon they will be releasing android 2.2 firmware which is supposed to be awesome.

Is it any different to HTC hero, cos thats what I have and hate it with a passion Quote
Stew Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 I put the OS4 software on my 3GS yesterday and my other half did hers last night. Seems good and that will tide me over from WANTING the the new version. Quote
Zedrush Posted June 24, 2010 Author Posted June 24, 2010 tried getting my dad to order under his account another contract to I could get the iphone on 02 contract but they told him he can only update his current contract, not buy another contract and keep existing, so then tried orange to upgrade my existing contract, the automated machine said they have extremely high calls, waiting time 57 mins if I hold So just got fed up and bought the damn thing from apple. Hopefully cutting simcard into micro size should work, if it doesnt ill keep you all updated. Quote
Chris`I Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 I put the OS4 software on my 3GS yesterday and my other half did hers last night. Seems good and that will tide me over from WANTING the the new version. Ditto. Read up on the reviews and theres not a lot that the iphone 4 offers over my 3GS. Can spend the money on more fun stuff like bits for my MTB or car Quote
stanski Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 I put the OS4 software on my 3GS yesterday and my other half did hers last night. Seems good and that will tide me over from WANTING the the new version. Cool is it vastly different? quicker? noticeable? I did'nt knwo they had released it yet? Quote
Ekona Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Apparently my interwebs connection at home isn't good enough for the Apple servers, and it keeps cutting the OS4 download off after about 60MB Quote

Seems good and that will tide me over from WANTING the the new version. Cool is it vastly different? quicker? noticeable? I did'nt knwo they had released it yet? I noticed an improved 'quickness' in the 15mins i was using it....... Pick up my iPhone 4 later today, the end of my current 18 month contract is today... think it's a sign Quote

I'll admit I haven't read what all the changes are but so far so good. I have heard of computers struggling and crashing though. Not something myself or Jayne noticed though. I'm liking all the changes I've discovered so far. Quote
Chris`I Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Not a lot useful changes, the best ones are grouping of apps (press and hold an app icon til it wobbles, then drag it over another to group them), and the general speed increase. Quote
Stew Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 spell checker is better (changed slightly) and the way the phone groups my googlemail is better. Although a mate of mine says his hotmail is grouped the same.... Or and you get a picture background! Quote
UNABASHED Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 right I've decided to go for the ip4 after having a polay with a Desire this morning. only thing that's stopping me now is stock levels and deciding if I should wait for the jailbreak to come through first! Quote
UNABASHED Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 does anyone know if I can get the same early upgrade deal through O2 if I get the hpone from the carephone warehouse rather than a O2 shop?? Quote
Gizmo-R Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Guys this is not a bad deal if you can afford the intial outlay! You are only tied in for 12month contract for IP4 http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/705278/i ... t-250-mins Quote
Gizmo-R Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Also a topic on Cheapest way to get Iphone 4 http://uk.biz.yahoo.com/23062010/389/ch ... one-4.html Oh and tesco piggy back on the O2 as a mobile virtual netowrk operator! Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Double click the home button so you can multi task, try it when your in a game or something... Keep your finger on an app on the home screen and the ones you can move and "file" will have an X, drag one of those over a similer type, like angry birds over sheep launcher and it will create a file, then drag your other game apps onto the file. If you get an email with a date in it, it will underline and when you click it it will take you too a calander entry.. Not sure if I like the message grouping and the one inbox (and that you cant turn it off!!) but as thats how Outlook 2010 has gone I guess it unifies it slightly? Quote
