ooooh, now i was ringing orange this morning to upgrade to the W995 3 months before the end of my contract, i wonder if i should wait until Christmas to see what the iphone deals i are like ....................

I wonder if they'll mess about with the home screen like they do with other phones although I don't see how they could do.

I've just taken an iPhone contract out with O2 about 10 days ago :mad:. I would prefer to be with Orange because their talk plans are cheaper.

I don't know if to send it back and wait or just stay with O2.

I keep trying to escape orange due to poor signal, but as a bankrupt would have to go to PAYT, but the iphone will tempt me to stay as im due an upgrade soon!

Orange selling Apple...fruity

Wonder what talk plans and data packages they'll put together and if it will undercut O2 at all?

That's a surprise! I didn't know they'd be getting the 3GS as well About time O2 faced some competition, they've become less competitive, probably because of the exclusive deals with iPhone and now Palm Pre.
