T-mobile phone up before but they are crap at releasing new phones   
 
I quite fancy the new iPhone, how hard is it to get them unlocked?

3G iPhone you'll have to sign a contract with O2 instore rather than online like the last ones - that is why people unlocked them and put their existing sim's in, now you'll be tied to a 18 month o2 contract so unlocking it to use on a different network means you'llbe paying for two contracts.

You're strange then.... 
 
Well aslong as the 3giPhone can be jailbroken and you don't mind paying the £40 odd/month tarriff for 18 months for something you'll never use ontop of the initial outlay for the 3giPhone - then sure, go for it! 
 
Personally, in your situation, I wouldn't though!

I'd love a 3G iPhone but it's not about the expensive contract. 
 
I can't justify it when I get a free N95 8GB for £27 a month, with unlimited data, unlimited texts and 600 minutes. 
 
If I can sell the N95 8GB and buy a 3G iPhone on eBay, then maybe -- I'm quite happy with the Nokia, though. It's a superb phone. I have missed texting properly so much...

Currently paying £50 a month for the contract I use (T-mobile) 
And £35 a month on an o2 contract i have never used (got it for the phone at the time, 18 months ago) 
 
So it wouldnt bother me, I go over my bills all the time. 
 
Had the same phone for over a year now, so would be nice for a change. 
 
Luke - Have you got any idea how hard it would be to unlock the iPhone?
