Since when was that? Mine is a lowly 3G but the mrs sorted out a mate with a 3GS late last year for Friends & Family.

Interesting balanced view of the situation. I wonder if UK networks will be offering the same early upgrades.

Try engaging what is left of that brain and re-read my comments, which I stand by. I say it as I see and read it as well and it does not take a genius to see what a first class tool you are. Now run along and stand next to your router so you can get a few more bars on your phone.

As for me changing phones, noooo you must have the wrong selfish, attention seeking, lonely, deranged SN member,. I have not changed my phone for weeks now.

Good job it doesn't take a genius because you are certainly not one of those LOL

You really are hopping mad over a few posts on an Internet forum - f**k me your life must be woefully short of excitement Chill man, you will do yourself an injury.

Jesus****ingchristalmighty

Is this what it turns into over a frigging poxy phone, hardly life or death is it. I thought these phone threads were supposed to be tongue in cheek, you know, not that serious.












And everybody knows the Desire is the most superior market leading super phone.

Thw whole Friends & Family has changed, you don't get 30% off line rental now, can't remember the exact details off the top of my head but it's pretty crap compared to what it used to be.

Fairly sure it's money off a phone and nothing off the line rental.

Does not matter how long you have been trading or vat registered,just proof of your Buisness eg your companys house number.
I paid £170 last July for my 3GS 32g and as part of the Buisness tariff with O2 came the 12mth upgrade,voilà !

My comments only came about because of your persistent needling and pointless remarks on previous threads. Hell I even tried to reason with you on a few threads but you insist on trying to be a smartarse

Usually I let it pass with most people as there are far more important things and this is only the internet after all, but for people like you, there seems to be no help.

OK being serious for a minute I will say two things:

1) My argument with your Apple chum Jack was because he was plain wrong and unlike many I will not let it lie as what was being said was utterly misleading and incorrect. In his favour he did eventually at least partially admit that to be the case and I suspect he was 'enjoying the banter' as much as I.

2) Since when did you become the thread police? You tried to reason with me when I wasn't engaging you. Newsflash!! Jack is actually quite capable of fighting his own battles and doesn't need someone like you to come along and fight them for him. Or have we regressed back to the school playground?

Apple have clearly captured a certain audience.

A new phone with a couple or three *new* features every other year are all it takes to reign in the faithfuls dollars every month regardless whether its better/worse than the opposition

you have to hand it to them

It's nothing new dpb, Nokia for one released the latest and greatest every few months even ten years ago, at least with Apple you can be up to date for a year.
