iJohnW.com: iPhone Unavailable at Apple Store Online

  • Lee Richards · 1 year ago
    Haha, they aren't giving much away are they? It's a similar story in the UK. Firstly 02, one of the big operators offered a substantial discount on the 8GB unit, which unsurprising sold out. Then both 02 and one of the larger high street retailers announced that both the 8GB and 16GB models were unavailable. Soon after that the UK Apple Store also stated that both models were 'unavailable'. Most people, myself included would be very surprised if Apple were to leave a gap in the market for very long, so I also think an announcement is imminent. I myself might be tempted with iPhone 2.0. The lack of 3G and a decent camera on the original version kepy me and many other Europeans away. In addition, the original contract requirements in the UK were excessive both in length and cost. Jailbreaking soon sorted out that little problem though :) Hopefully, those clever people will get to work once the new model is released.

    Apple is soo secretive it drives everyone nuts including myself! I just wish we had more information on the nex gen model. It's all being kept in the dark!

    What I am worried about is how much extra 3G will be a month compared to the regular edge? Is it worth it since ATT 3G network isn't that large?

    I put my iphone sim card in my old 3G phone and it worked fine (at 3G speeds). I dont believe ATT charges extra for their 3G network as it was the same price to get unlimited data on my 3G phone as it was for my EDGE phone.

    @Ross: Sweeet! Thanks Ross! I hope that is right!
