As I said - I predict it'll be ?129 for the 8GB and ?199 for the 16GB over here in the UK.

Sounds logical bud, I wonder when O2 will announce their service plans for the phone, and will they subsidize at all? Surely they'd of known about this announcement, you'd of thought their website would of been ready for the wealth of potential customers, who'll bounce away from O2, disappointed...

They already have iPhone specific tariffs, I doubt they'll be changing for the 3G iPhone.

That's all well and good but when all your friends have "normal" phones that do plain old MMS it makes sense. MMS is used a lot more in Europe than the US.

I have had a cell phone for over 7 years now and I can't remember one time I have used MMS. I live in the US...is it that popular across the pond?

Apple is attempting to drive the market away from SMS and MMS through email, and it will only get better as iPhone picks up more and more users. :)

i have owned cell phones now for a good 10 years. i have never ever in my life used mms. never. and neither did my friends.

i find it surprising aswell, that its such a great deal for some... id rather have the option to send an email with a picture of the cute cat ive just seen on the go than having to cut down the picture quality and all just for the sakes of sending an mms...

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
