I'm fed up with O2, going to try 3, T-Mobile and Vodafone each on monthly contracts and see which has the best 3G signal in my area and then get myself a proper contract with the best 
O2 contract is finally ending in about a week, and their redemptions offered me, wait for it, a free Elm on £20/m...

Three seem awesome, £10 monthly contract with 100mins, 3000 texts, 1GB internet, and 3000 3to3 minutes, just not sure what the signal will be like!
Monthly contract means if I see a great deal I can quickly change networks too, and make some money by selling any phone I get, which is what I did with my C905 about a year back  |

I am going to the apple store tommorow to buy my ipod touch 4G  hope they have stock  I'm more excitied as I have not brought a new ipod since 2004! my ipod mini is too old now for me to do anything on it but play music and its starting to fill up as its only a 4gb.
-this thread is getting more offtopic its more about networks and iphones now  -

Kerry I must add & tell you that I have had my 3UK modem on my pc for over one year now. So far in all that time the network has been down ONCE!!!! And that was only for half the day I very rarely have any connection issues with 3UK & reception is great in most places especially using a Nokia. But their pay as you go modem tariffs are the best deals out of all the networks with £10 for 1 gig, £15 for 3 gig & £25 for 7 gig. It is also very speedy at loading pages though download speeds vary. T Mobile when I had their modem I found pages never loaded fully & it was slow

Looking to get one for christmas, I've never used one but they look very good. How many songs can I store if I buy the 8GB version? I can't afford the 16 or 32GB ones.

Definitely would save up for a 32GB model, the 8GB gives you about 6GB of free space after the OS install, which is incredibly low when you think of some fairly basic games/apps that'll take up about a 20th of that alone |

Fancy getting me one with your discount then shipping it to me?
Wonder what kind of discounts Apple Store workers get? Must be something pretty good, can't have any of the staff pulling out their Android devices to check the time during their shift, would just be plain embarrassing.. |

I have a 8GB altho enough space for me,
cos when you use it for commutting most of the time the battery bearley lasts and then its on iTunes recharging
I find its a good way to update the traxx, having more memory is better however are you gunna use it all ask yerself that?
8GB is £189
32GB is £249.99
and 64 Something over £300+

Sean,

iPod touchs are selling like hotcakes though
you can have mine for a price if you want?
I was gunna take it into CEX when i got my new one
it comes fully boxed with Case and brand new Apple headphones no marks on it at all,
always look after my stuff
as i said earlier it's 2 xmases old now updated with 4.1 OS
