No you certainly won't. The 3G iphones are subsidised by your contract (unlike the 1st iphone which you paid for outright), O2 will be loosing a lot of money if they gave free upgrades to someone who only got their 3g iphone a few weeks ago. Rumour has it that unless you're in your upgrade period, you won't be entitled to it at all (unless of course you pay off your contract).
Like i said, the 1st iphone wasn't subsidised at all so O2 were able to give the 3G iphone upgrades to anyone, as long as you signed up to another 18 months.

When are the announcements of the new iPhone?
Didn't realise that! I thought paying £170 odd or what ever it was for the 16gb G3 would have bought it out-right!
Going to be a bit annoyed if I have to wait till I'm in my upgrade period before I can get the new one...

I agree. I got my 3g iphone as soon as it was launched last July but i've heard from several O2 sources that this time they'll be no upgrade until you've reached your upgrade period. Hopefully i'll be proved wrong though.
Soldato
If there is a new hardware. A 32GB model is 100% no-brainer, right? It's well overdue.
Soldato
You're going to replace your iPhone with a crappy Windows Mobile phone based on an update that hasn't happened yet?
I don't want any of what you're smoking

£170?! No chance! iPhone 3Gs are about £500-£600 sim free.

Soldato
Im going to try and do what I did with my current 3G and just buy the handset from an auction site/forums. Got my current one 2 days after release but its on Simplicity!
Soldato

Does the Apple Logo look shiney or semi transparent (i.e white glow a la Macbooks 
) ?
