Yeh i heard about this so will wait a bit to see if its true or not and whether the jailbreakers can find a way to disable the watermark or bypass it.

Yeah, there will be a new firmware update fairly soon I would think. They have sped up the beta test process which is usually what they do near a release.
To be honest, given how Apple love locking their phones down, I can say it would be a near on 100% certainty.
Exactly, if in the unlikely event it is not true, it doesn't cost you anything to wait.
Would it really surprise you if they added something like this in and it wasn't found, or did so at a later date?
I'm sure they will do something like this. It's Apple after all.
Indeed until i see some actual proof that this watermark doesnt exist...ill hold off.
BTW your sig makes my eyes ache..cant quite make out what the hell it say

Quick question, scanned last few pages but couldn't see anyone saying.
I lost my release day iPhone
() and the insurance people have finally decided to pay out after having to appeal their decision (long story..)
I have the cheque in the post to me to buy one direct from Apple which is fine but its still showing as a 3 week wait. Is it a proper 3 week wait or are they just covering themselves for any delays in delivery? Did people get them delivered any quicker than that recently?
Unfortunately the nearest Apple store to me is London which will be a pain to get to..

People have had them delivered recently who ordered from Apple around release day online (Spawn was one I believe).
I would imagine there are still stock issues so you'll probably be waiting at least 2 weeks. The shipping estimates are quite pessimistic so they cover themselves.

I ordered mind on the 27th July and not expected till the 20th August. No sign of it shipping early so far..
Yeh i ordered mine on the 3rd of july and didnt get it till 3rd of august so almost a month...it shipped on the 24th of july as it said it would but it took them nearly a week to deliver it to me so yes its quite bad...whether or not its true is another question altogether.
Good luck trying to get stock from the apple st as they are more or less sold out ie the london stores although the new covent garden apple st is supposed to have the largest stockpile of apple hardware in the world so you might get one from them but before going id ring and make sure they have them in stock

They say its mostly effecting customers on three, the women from three said there was quite a lot of customers complaining about the problem and they were fully aware of the problem. I then said to her that if the problem isn't fixed i was gonna cancel the contract, which is replied that the problem would be 100% fixed.
I just hope so but its not a good start from three.

No they didnt but i gonna wait. i still have 12 days to cancel, so if its not fixed i'm off. i trying now to download some apps and it just not happening and its really annoying
Cheers Spawn, thought the stores were mostly sorted now
Can't wait to get my hands on my iphone again, so annoying after losing it on a night out then the hassle with the insurance people not accepting my claim - now the extra hassle of trying to get one.
Got really lucky on release day too, queued up 10 mins before Vodafone opened, walked in and 20 mins later out with one!
To make matters worse i'm using a Nokia 2610 as a loaner phone from a work mate..

If you can afford it go to coven garden tomorrow when it opens they have stock.
It takes pretty much bang on 2 hours for Orange to activate it, you'll get a flurry of text messages
ended up getting the messages at 3in the morning... waking up to a new phone is good
So whats the best apps i should try?
