When the phone is released on PAYG with Tesco does anyone know if they come unlocked? I know they unlock them after 12 months but does that apply to the PAYG as well??

They will be locked. There is always the option of jailbreaking to unlock to all networks. This would invalidate your warranty though.

I take it its a no brainer? If you have a works phone, grabbing a £499 iPhone4 direct from Apple is best (albeit expensive up front) option? i.e. total cost of ownership is only £499?

hi was thinking about getting an iphone4 but after playig with one at the weekend im not so sure - it was much heavier than i reckoned on for a start
however i would still quite like an iphone so have been looking at 3gs's - not quite so keen on the rounded back and thats why i preferred the iphone4
anyway.....

i have seen on the 3network that you get a 3gs black 8gb or white 32gb for £29 and then a £30 a month contract which would suit my needs - what im confused over is how come theres no price difference but a huge capacity difference ? is it a mistake or are white ones of any size not so popular on this model ?
seems rather to good to be true ??

thx

I suggest you have a look at the Telegraph's 10 reasons not to buy the iPhone4
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/apple/7800676/10-reasons-not-to-buy-Apples-new-iPhone-4G.html it might help in your decision...

Assume you are talking about the 3GS 8GB in Black being the same price as the 3GS 32GB in White.

The white 32GB is surplus old stock that Three somehow have been tasked with off loading, i suspect it is one of those once its gone it is gone deals. It still has ios3 which users have to upgrade themselves (no real hardship). So if you what one I would get one sooner rather than later.

Appraently Tesco extra stores with Phone shop were expecting limited number of iphone 4s in stock today...

Did anyone managed to get one from Tesco...My local store asked me to check again tomorrow coz they haven't got any deliveries today. But I did received an email confirming the stock arrival from tesco mobile web site.
