    I have a confession to make - I broke my SOS and applied for credit!

    I have an iPhone JB and unlocked to use on T-Mobile, and I have to say, their network coverage is one of the worst I have ever used, rarely get a 3G signal, always the stupid GPRS signal (the circle) so what is the point in having an iPhone?

    Anyway I applied for Orange and was sucessful. Not sure how as I thought they were hard to get accepted for?

    I'm really disappointed that it's not running the full version of Mac OS, but rather, an edited version of the iPhone OS.

    It just means people will be restricted on what they can do with it and I guess they can only use applications from the app store.

    I don't know my OH got accepted for two orange contracts, with very expensive handsets (Samsung Omnia HD and Nokia N97), whilst there's a big fat red Default to O2 for nearly a grand, only just two years old at the time, when he got the Orange deals!!

    Guess not so hard to get accepted then...
