If you want it on payg you are mad. The total cost of ownership is MUCH MUCH MUCH more and the data rates are mental.

My brother got one today, but got up for it. I called around 10am and the two brighton stores had sold out.

His, however, has STILL not been activated. O2 seems to have ballsed this whole thing up so much.

Their whole ordering system crashed, then they turned OFF all email systems to the company cos the couldn't respond to everyone.

Fuckwits.

Few weeks ago went in O2 shop to see if they had one to demonstrate...was a display there but no phone, just a message saying as they could not connect a display model to the alarm system you had to ask a assistant to bring one out and show you! Hung around for a few mins and all of them were busy so left! Anyway really do not want a contract, never had one, always used pay as you go....but I could change way of thinking!

just wait till the first buyers blinded by the hype sell it to get a Nokia instead :D

Well the phone wasn't instores till today!

Do the maths. The total cost of ownership over 18 months of a PAYG phone is about 600 quid more than the contract. And the data rates are REALLY shit.

Yikes, your credit score must be bad! Mine is pathetic and mobile phone contracts are about all I can get.
