O2: The New AT&T

[drplokta]

Bah, O2 aren't giving existing iPhone users the subsidised price to upgrade to the 3G S until their existing contract expires. And they're charging £15 per month extra for tethering, for up to 3GB of data per month. Hope Netshare still works under iPhone OS 3.0.

It does look rather steep, especially compared with the offers to upgrade when the iPhone 3G came out.

I've still got an original iPhone, which I got in January last year on an 18-month contract, so it looks as if I'll be able to upgrade next month. I would have been tempted to upgrade to a 3G anyway for the GPS, 3G data and larger memory, so having more performance and a digital compass is the icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned.

Definitely upgrading to 3.0 software when it comes out though. If nothing else, I could have really done with the 'Find My iPhone' (and, by extension, the bag it's in) feature a few weeks ago...

Alas, it won't help most people, as you'll need a MobileMe subscription to use Find My iPhone.

Because my iphone is always on silent, Find My iPhone is almost a killer app to me; I may well get MobileMe *just for that*. Though I quite want to be able to do the photo subscriptions, especially now that my mum has an iMac.
