Looks pretty dam special. 24th June: not long! So how will it work with o2 - will there be preordering?

preordering starts in a week apparantly, unless that was just for the US market (doubt it!)

Interesting thanks. I like many others will be trying to get one!

32gb or 16gb| I have a 16gb 3G however HD movie, bigger pictures and inevitably larger apps may make the 32 the one to go for.
But, I'm a bloke, so will buy the biggest one

Goes without saying! I'm struggling for free space on my 3GS now I've filled it with all my music and podcasts etc, and there's upwards of 2000 photos on it, so I was really hoping for a 64GB, but that's not happening anytime soon. Still, I'm sure I'll still be happy

The carphone warehouse are doing pre-registration now

Apple are starting their Preorders on the 15th of June.

It'll be interesting to see if the UK networks are doing what AT&T are doing.. If your phones due for renewal at all in 2010, you can upgrade early..

My renewal can start next week, contract ends September

Correct

Will there be a software update avalable for the 3gs ?

Yea, iOS 4 is coming on on the 21st of June. All the features will be available for the 3GS.. Not all of the things will be available for the 3G.

I've just been watching the video on the Apple website and all I can say is "wow!". The iPhone 4 looks stunning. I owned an original iPhone and always felt that it was produced as a 'premium' product, nicely put together and even came boxed on a nice clear acrylic tray - the 3G by comparison, i've always felt, is much cheaper in feel; it just feels like mass produced throwaway consumer rubbish. The new iPhone 4 looks like a return to original iPhone values - it looks beautifully constructed and looks like a device that you can be proud to own. I for one cannot wait! Luckily my contract ran out in February, so i've been hanging on for this announcement in the hope of upgrading ASAP. Hopefully the UK device/tariff pricing won't be prohibitive.

It's good to see that the UK release date is the same as the US.. I can't wait to get my hands on one.

It's time like this that I love working for o2..

Say, you ever see a grown man naked?

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

Shirley you can't be serious?

I am serious.. And don't call me Shirley.

Listen Betty, don't start up with your white zone st again.

I need a new phone, and this looks like just the thing...but, how long do you think the battery will last ?

I have found the Apple site overestimates by around 30% when it comes to battery life of their products.

I've found that pretty much all smartphones last a day of mild usage, I keep a charger next to bed and a charger at work and just stick it in whenever I can. Battery life doesn't 'really' matter that much. If Jobs' words are to be had faith in, this might even last 48 hours of mild usage. Of course that'll be annihilated with any kind of video watching/taking.

I know it's a pita, but if I'm out all day I carry two micro battery chargers. Simply plug into your iPhone and it's charged in about an hour.

Cost about £5 each from fleabay

Not a bad idea at all.
I am quite often out all day (away from charging points) and need to be in contact via phone and email.

Jail break, so I can use the phone as a WiFi point with an iPad.
