Is it really worth the upgrade from 16GB 3G? I don't think so, especially for that amount of money.
I got mine from O2 payasyougo last december, which cost me about 450 euro. Waited 2-3 weeks for software unlock and that was it.
I will only be bying the new 16 or 32 GB model if I can get it at a similar price and give mine to my Mrs 
Of course since there will be some sort of unlock because I can't see apple selling it officially in cyprus for a tiny amount of users... |

well there is not that man differences from the two... there is a comparison site on apple.com for the 3g and the new one and there is only few extra features like video editing but does that really make it worth the upgrade??
most of you seem to be in england on 02 but for those of u in cyprus technica are going to bring it NEXT WEEK i mean im su suprised because cyprus always gets things 50 years later and FACTORY UNLOCKED which means i can use any sim card and upgrade no problems.. but iphone is not official here so its either factory unlocked or a ipod because the dev team will probably not be able to unlock it...
anyway this email they sent me but they did not tell me price for the 32GB version but atm the 3g 16GB is 730 euro so its fair to assume it will be 800-900 euros which im happy to pay..

That's still a lot. I'm flying to UK-Spain-France in late july for holidays. Maybe one of these countries offer an unlockable version at a reasonable price.  |

I hate the blooming things ...
You can't have a dinner for six people without 3 of them fiddling with the bloody things at any one time!  |

It's not just if they get a call.
If you mention music, they whip it out to show you some new function. If you mention meeting up again, out it pops so that dates can be made. If you discuss a new book, they have to make a note to get it ... and on and on, as all eyes have to fix on this gadget being manipulated with a little pointy thing with the utmost concentration, pride and reverence! |

Reh Palio, bou eese reh?
Like so many others we have one of those soeasy payg sim cards for our CY visits. If I unlock an iPhone can I use this soeasy payg to get Internet over 3G in CY?
Pricey? Any other options? |

Cheaper buying a lap top bill
Just stop in your motor outside any block of flats and log on to anyone of the unsecured networks that pop up  |
