Mebster Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 So what do they mean by "Mum is no longer the word.". It's no longer a secret. Mums the word means keep it hush hush.. I'm currently on O2 and Orange. My O2 contract ends at the end of Nov. hmmmm I wonder what types of offers O2 may give. I was thinking of leaving them and sticking to my Orange contract. N95 on 12month with 500mins xnet, 200min landline......all for a huge £15/month. Thanks for the info do1. I'm assuming the information will later be published on the Apple UK website for all to see?

GBK.Xscape Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Here we go... Steve stands up, welcomes everyone. And he dives right in: the iPhone has been announced for the UK! "We picked the best one, the most poplular carrier, it's O2. We've since lowered the price of the US phone of the 8GB phone, in the UK the price of the iPhone is £269 including VAT." It goes on sale November 9.Same ads as US, just British voice over.The UK Apple Store is also down.....EngadgetVisual Voicemail, Unlimited data with £35, £45, £55 plansNo 3G and No price on iPhone yet. it costs £269Finally some insight on the lack of 3G in the iPhone3G needs to get back up to 5+ hours, something we think well see later next yearSo a 3G iPhone is on the way....One thing that UK is getting that us over here in the US aren't is 7,000 free wifi-hotspots.
