Why can you not cut them down? They are only 0.09mm thinner too.

Obviously that guide may not work, but worth a try if I need a new one anyway.
Are there any other phones out now which use the Nano sim?

Yeah I was with Orange and they weren't interested at rival offers/tarriffs so told em to shove my custom up their a$$, guy didn't give a hoot unlike 3 who would do everything possible to keep you.
In fairness they still earn as I went to T Mobile (same group) as I want to be part of EE but I got a better deal from it - Oranges data tarrifs suck now, my old one was unlimited and for 36 quid they now limit you to 1gb, T Mobile is unlimited albeit with a fair use policy.
Handset was £269 (64GB model), same as orange offered, but £100 quidco cashback which has tracked, plus my old one is worth £175 to the trade in websites, or seem to go for over £200 on ebay.....

Just got a txt from 02 to upgrade. Ouch at their handset prices. £36pm tariff on a 32gb is £249 compared to £89 with Three. Unlimited calls but I dont use the 600 mins a month I get now so no use to me.

Yes, as it builds up in your account they transfer it back to you via BACs, its brilliant and so far I've had £750 back over the time I've been with them I'd have just lost otherwise!! Heartily recommended and often superb deals/cashback on things like insurance, energy etc
Thats steep from O2 blimey!!

From Put off Punter to Marauding Sheep in the blink of an eye. Twist it how you like, iPhone haters may be plentiful, especially on this forum, but more people enjoy Apple's fine products.

There is an LTE version due out, along with a windows 8 version of the S3, it will also use more than the one available bandwidth for LTE (and only EE have the 1800mhz band), so anyone else wont be able to use LTE on their iphone5 suckered again by those people at Apple (didnt you learn anything from the "new" ipad saga?)

LTE will be good for me and ruinous for others, imagine the bill you could rack up on that Mobile Desktop of yours, the one you signed another contract to get for free, but then that's good business isn't it Tony.

Crazy eh. Custard vs the Tards.
Anyhow. When you install iOS 6 take a look in Settings. Some really nice additions in there, I knew there would be a Bluetooth switch on the first page and it's very handy, but I hadn't seen the Privacy section. Good to see Apple moving Privacy up the ladder.
iCloud is working overtime and working well coupled with Mountain Lion.

The Apple store in Cambridge swapped it for a new one - no question, so big up Apple
but they are just electronic devices

I knew that would have you spitting vitriol. How does that make the owners of the rather nice S3 feel? It's only just been launched and it's outdated, must sting a bit.

you really make us all laugh Jack As you have no idea, EE are the only ones who can have 4G iphones, the rest wont work, that covers pretty much europe too, fanfookingtastic going from Apple
Also it will be atleast a year before the other networks can have any form of 4G up and running, the "planned" sell off of the spectrum "may" take place in january, if Ofcom dont put it back, really its a downer, but then again wifi hotspots are the way forward
I wont be buying an iphone 5, I dont need to, its outdated before it even comes out, its slower than the competition, its less advanced, you cant use its LTE (amusing really
) and its far too expensive for what i get now for what Apple (not the networks) are asking for it on contract.I'll stick with the phone thats sold 20million in 3 months, thanks

Love it Tony, you're throwing made up comparative reviews at an iPhone you haven't even seen. You move up to Fandroid level 2, The bull**** is strong with you. I'll take some LTE over none old chap, no doubt you'll upgrade again to keep up, is that four this year?

3UK have apparently bought some 1800mhz spectrum, but they are famously sloooow at bringing out new stuff.
Apple will have to bring out an updated version of the 5 some time next year.
It's only been out a couple of days and it's only NEW feature won't work, must sting a lot!!

You won't be able to use 4G LTE on O2 or Vodaphone as they will only work on 800mhz, the NEW (snigger) Iphone doesn't support that.
