wonder what they are fixing?
I did mine around 8.30 but have not received any confirmation emails. I do have the order ref though.

no, as a new customer.
I'll have 14 days to decide if I want to keep it, in which case I'll port my number back to o2 again, otherwise I'll return it and wait for a sim free or payg option which can be unlocked and then use it on t-mob

Masseur, so right now you're with t-mobile, right?
And you are gonna go over to O2 and port your number to O2? In which case you'll have 2 weeks to decide if you like the iPhone. If not, you can hand the phone back, cancel the O2 contract and port number back to T-Mobile?
If this is the case, I might consider doing the same thing. Hopefully by then PAYG iPhone will be available

no, I won't port my number to o2 until I've spent a few days with the new iphone on the O2 service with whatever number they give me initially
If it doesn't perform due to the crummy o2 3g service then I'll hand it back and stick with the t-mob option. I'm sure an unlocking solution will come along very soon once people get their hands on a real device and not just an original iphone upgraded to V2 beta

Wow! 2 days. Cool And is there a charge to port? or is it free?
PS It seems all iPhones for pre-booking are now sold 
What are the chances of there being no iPhones come close of play Friday? Or even at beginning of Friday? |

Thanks again Masseur.
So BIG question now is... do I succumb to the rip-off O2 tariff of 35 P/M and sacrifice my T-Mobile Flext 35 at £25 P/M (I got a discount from T-Mobile) OR do I wait... and wait.... and wait some more for the PAYG iPhone?
PS Does anyone know if iPhone is available on an Apple Education Discount?
