Any body else having problems with O2 data recently? Mine doesn't seem to be working at all.

Been having issues with 3g in my area with O2. Edge seems fine though so I've left it on that for now. Which is a shame because it is painfully slow for web browsing compared to 3g. Though it should be fine for getting my email.

No reboot didn't fix it. That was the first thing I tried.

It was working for a while after lunch, and then it stopped again. Full bars 3G signal. Could be the same problem as you Blackhawk.

I just ordered one from Apple. Says 3 weeks to ship, anyone know if this is accurate or, as I'm hoping, them being pessimistic?

Its relatively accurate.

Although I have a Iphone 4, I'm still waiting for an email for the reservation I made 6 weeks ago.

that long to ship at that price? shocking really

Well its due to demand and manufacturing, not actual shipping

Good point. Ah well deep down I knew it wouldn't come any sooner.

But still, company like that should be able to meet the demands. If i just dished out 300 odd quid I wouldnt wanna wait a month to get the gear!

I agree somewhat.

They announced the iPhone 4 and then rushed with releasing it, its probably sold as well as they expected, however stock problems are often deliberate.

What about this free bumper thing? Do they send them out with the phone, do you have to ask for one or has that offer ended?

You download an App that verifies your iPhone 4 and lets you pick one.

 

[MagicBoy]

They don't come with the phone. You download an App, pick the case you want and Apple will mail them out when they are in stock.

 

[DanH84]

what's the best freebie case to get? I'm thinking to just get the bumpers at the moment unless anyone knows better.

I got the bumper, its horrible though really, using the phone without a case/bumper is much nicer.

Have a quick google - a couple of websites did a comparison review.

Spawn I noticed from a screenshot a few pages back that you are with T-Mobile. Did you cut a standard sim down or did they supply you a micro sim?

I'm with them on contract and was going to call them and ask about a microsim.

I used a sim cutter tool and cut it down...got one from ebay for about £5....works perfectly fine too.

Tmobile wanted to charge me £10 for replacing my sim card with a micro sim card.
