    Well obviously not *yet*, but I will by Friday. Home office day FTW !

    Anyone else sad enough to take a day off work to get a new gadget ?

    It takes a brave geek to admit that on Eurogamer. It's only acceptable to take time off to pick up a game on this site. And even then, it had better be one of those guaranteed 1m sold on first day ones.

    But hey, you pick up your gadget. I'm locked into an 18 month contract with the previous model. Let us know how you like it.

    Good Friday's come a bit late this year, but I too will succumb to the outrageous rip of that is o2 so that I can worship at the church of Apple.

    Should I be happy? I *think* I am...

    /can't wait

    New to me, geezer. Unless you know of an iPhone secreted somewhere on my house ?

    It's a context thing.

    I kid you not, I have downgraded my company car and made other economies around the house do that I can afford this bloody phone.

    But after loving my iPod Touch for the last 9 months or so, I just know this baby is going to be used A LOT. Plus, my missus gets the iPod Touch and TomTom as hand me downs, so she's not exactly pissed off.

    Win / win

    Just ordered mine on the internet earlier today but by accident i ordered 2 !! didn't notice there was 2 in my basket i was clicking away and the site was slow.

    Took me almost 1 hour 40 mins by phone to get in touch with O2 to cancel one of them, hope its all sorted now or i will be getting a big bill :)

    Even my bank thought it was suspicious and rang me so to say 'have i ordered these' :)

    Everybody has secrets, life would be boring without secrets, don't you think...?

    I picked one up today - the monthly contract is £30 per month cheaper than the Orange contract was, and by signing up for 18 months, I got the 32g for £175ish. Afaik, I can get 70 quid-ish for the shitarse C902 I was using, so just over one hundred quid for a better 'phone with better network coverage and a lower monthly outlay.

    Win, win and indeed, win.

    I just IMd my mate to see how he was getting on with his and he said it had a big line of dead pixels across the top third of the screen.

    He boxed it straight up, while crywanking, and CPW are picking it up on monday.

    Its the first unit ive heard of with such a bad screen issue, so i hope its not a precedent.

    I got 20 G1's when they came out and 5 of them where dead on arrival.

    I have a feeling QC on new hardware has lower standards to get the things in shops at the start..

    I noticed from a friends Twitter stream his O2 store had only sold 8 handsets so far... Im sure its going to be called a truimph in the press tho

    Blimey, just realised it is updating my iTunes library while I am doing other things. Stealth sync ?

    Walked into the o2 shop with my £570 *POW* slapped it on the counter, "give me a white 16gb 3G S please", "sorry we don't have any white one's", *POW* "give me a black one"!!
  • Deleted user 19 June 2009 17:00:32
    And...? Did you get it? Or did they tell you to *POW* stop being silly? ;)

    Incidentally I'm always amused when I see men with white iPhones. They're so gay.

    Dude, if you had £570 you should have asked for a 32GB iPhone. And then made sure you got the £30 or so change back.
