Why would you camp outside a store for it, it's not like there is going to be a shortage of them, just like there wasn't with the first one.
Go in at a sensible time on day of release, and have yourself a decent kip the night before. |

@anyone
I have had an O2 contract for about 13 or 14 months. Didn't fancy the first iPhone because of price but love this. Want to upgrade but anyone know if I can in July. I enquired about this with the last iPhone and they said I could upgrade and break out of my contract as long as I had started a contract before last september. From the o2 website it just says they will give me a call when I can upgrade. Is this July or October or whenever my contract is up

I'm really disappointed with new iPhone because of the camera. I was expecting a 3 or 5 MP camera with AF, flash(Xenon or LEDs) and VGA video recording!  Camera, Bluetooth and MMS (very useful in my country) are the main things that put me back from iPhone! Despite being a huge Apple fan I probably won't be buying 3G iPhone!( Maybe as a back up phone)

No it hasn't been released in Bosnia & Herzegovina officially, but it is available on the black market since it was released! I expect the same thing will happen with 3G iPhone!

Seems like the 3G iPhone isn't so cheap after all:
This morning we're getting a first look at unsubsidized prices for the iPhone 3G in Europe. Vodafone Italy has set an out-of-contract price for the iPhone 3G at 499/€569 ($773/$881) for the 8GB/16GB models, respectively. Subscription rates have not yet been announced. While steep, those prices are actually smartphone-reasonable in Italy (and around Europe) where an HTC Touch Cruise with its WiFi, tri-band HSDPA data, GPS, and touchscreen sells for €549. Capisce?

Did people really expect it to be the same price without a contract, as it is with one?
Since when were sim free phones the same price as they are on a contract, erm..... never. |

no, what I mean is that the 1st gen iPhone was not subsidised.
any other phone, if you don't take a contract you pay one price for the handset and if you do take a contract you pay a cheaper price for the handset
with iPhone 1st gen the actual handset was the same price whether you took a contract or not
so its not unreasonable for people to think it would be the same price now for the 2nd gen with or without a contract, though clearly that would be too good to be true
