Ive just ordered this, it was the best I could find! The deal includes like 700 mins, unlimited text and unlimted data/wi fi...surely this has got to bes the best iphone deal at the moment? I could have paid £407 and only £20 per month but that was for about 100 mins and not many texts...so for about £4 per month extra (considering the total price of the contract and phone is £695 the £35 one came out the winner!

    Hey guys,

    Not sure if anyone else has seen this, but Tesco have a really appealing new deal on the iPhone:-

    http://direct.tesco.com/p/inc/specials/iphone/iphone2.asp

    Basically a 12 month contract for £35 per month with 750 minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited internet and wi-fi for the contract duration (giving a total contract price of £420).

    The 8GB 3G iPhone is £100 giving an overall total of £520 for the year.

    The 16GB 3GS is £200 giving an overall total of £620 for the year.

    The 32GB 3GS is £275, giving an overall total of £695 for the year.

    Definitely the best deal I've seen so far on the iPhone, and Tesco seem to be the only network to offer 12 month deals.

    EDIT: Just noticed they've also dropped the PAYG price to £524 for the 32GB 3GS, £424 for the 16GB 3GS and £324 for the 8GB 3G.

    Does it have an FM radio?
  • Not built in, although there are many apps that use the internet to stream radio stations such as TuneIn Radio.

    Looks like they trying to shift these before a newer version comes out and their value plummets

    Plenty of rumours around.....here's an example

    Ridiculous sums of money for a Iphone with a shelf life of a couple of weeks before the new one comes out.

    £620 for a phone for a year.....I thought this was a money saving forum.

    I would advice to wait for the new one, it is rumoured that a new iphone will be out in June.

    This is what happened just before they bought out the 3GS one

    Exactly

    No phone is worth paying £620 over a year for.:rotfl:

    You have to hand it to Apple for a marketing triumph and extracting so much money from so many customers in a supposed recession:T

    You have to remember that the 32gb 3gs is currently the BEST iphone on the market and to buy new on PAYG is £550!!!!!

    So the ohone plus years contract for £695 is not too bad of a deal!
