Well, that says a lot about the quality of the Samsung "blue-shirt" workforce, doesn't it...
Thanks for putting in the time to find out though - much appreciated!
No problem. Glad I could help. Anyone planning on going down to get one?

Funny thing is, they kept telling me how no one would have it for cheaper. When I told them they was mention of a "special price" online, not a SINGLE ONE OF THEM had a clue!?!
I had to show them online!
Plus, apparently there was a reservation system online, although I was reassured they have "plenty of stock"

+1 Thanks Jebanec.
Will be going to Samsung tomorrow or Tuesday just to have a ganders - will be getting mine on an upgrade.
I have the white s3 =) thought blue looked a little tacky, the back anyway.

5 Hour drive and hotel for this phone? Must be on drugs.

Crazy stuff...
If he'd done his research then he would have known that there was no grey version, and that 4G was unlikely.
But then, when you're famous, you don't need to look into things. You just waltz in and demand what you want, and if you don't get it, you stamp your feet and pout. On twitter.
I paid £549.99 sim free. Maybe she put in the wrong price 
Turns out they gave me a discount not sure why. They didn't even mention
it. I just checked the receipt. Um. Wierd.
It is awesome though. Screen quality is much better and jellybean
Is a big improvement.

it was an absolute shambles, one minute its 4g, 569 next minute no 4g, 569 then on check out after a LOT of ppeople had walked out it came out at 549, staff were pretty clueless...

Much better than... which phone?!
More details please - as the first OcUK-er to get his hands on the phone, you have a moral duty to deconstruct it for us mere plebians
On an unrelated note, I've been looking around the web, and it seems that we can expect around £10 per month extra to upgrade to a 4G contract from EE - assuming you're on Orange or T-mobile presently (and have a compatible 4G handset). Orange and T-mobile customers will be able to migrate existing contracts to 4G (paying the additional 4G tariff of course) without penalty, and will be sent a replacement SIM card.
The EE 4G network will be available in 16 UK cities by the end of 2012 (including Nottingham; yay...).
edit: list of cities for 2012 4G:
What the hell is Derby doing on that list?!

Because its not mine. This is one of the display ones. It's not a pic I took, but someone else who did that was also at the launch.

Just checked on Digital-Phone's website and the grey 16GB has been changed:

Interestingly I've just had a DHL

Really?! That's... interesting. Hope you don't just get a white one.
