    Can you not use iTunes to get the apps on your pc then put them on your phone?

    DON'T get an iphone now WAIT this year they will bring out a new iphone so you otherhalf is just wasting money

    There are still many features missing off the current Iphone which will hopefully will be sorted when the new one comes out

    WAIT WAIT WAIT

    these phones are expensive enough it the 3gs only recently came out unless the newer ones come out with better camera and a few other bits are better, this current model should be sufficient for most people.

    i want a 3gs any new ones are going to be too expensive.

    Does anyone know the answer to this? ^^^^^

    It would be cool to just transfer them across to you iPhone rather than using data allowance to download them. You could just use your home internet.
  • Hi Legoman,

    Yes you can download them on your PC then they will automatically copy over when you connect your iPhone to your PC. Also, the iPhone is WiFi enabled, so if you have WiFi in your home you can use this for browsing the internet on your iPhone and it will be free of charge, and not come out of your 250MB allowance.

    I have an iphone and my contract has ended so was thinking of switching to Pay as you Go. I would also like to know what the best Pay as you Go deal is to use with an iPhone.

    I use 3G quite a bit for tweeting, browsing the web and downloading emails but doubt I use 250mb a month, so Orange may be an option. However I always got terrible Orange reception near my home - has Orange reception improved recently? Think I read something about them merging with another provider.

    Orange are merging with T mobile but that's up to a year away.

    There are free sims for all the networks on the web, just get one and see what signal you get,

    Thanks for the tip - will I need to put credit on to see what the signals like or just turn on the phone with the sim in?

    Just turn the phone on with the SIM in it. Quite a lot of the networks have a free home page for web browsing, so see what signal you get with that and you should get a fair indication of what signal you get.
