It can't do MMS though which is a bit behind the times.

Texting is great and it shows texts in conversation style so you can keep track. I find it as easy as the keyboard on my xda mini.

As for picture messages, just get them to send them to email, or perhaps o2 will send you a text containing a web link to go view the pic.

At the end of my first day with it I'm finding it a superb piece of kit, its a joy to use just about every feature on it. I think I could rotate the phone and watch it rotate the pictures for hours. I don't think the sign up did a credit check but then I was an existing o2 customer.

OK cool, does it have GPS?

Re: iPhone UK Release info
 
Nope but it has a turn by turn fake gps done through google maps.

Not that I'd use it, I prefer my tom tom on the xda mini. I'm going to look to see if it is better to keep the xda for sat nav or sell it and get a dedicated tom tom unit.

Please bear in mind unlocking your iPhone will result in voiding your warranty, problems upgrading to newer software updates (it will disable the hack and you would need to wait until it's hacked again!), and possibly bricking your iPhone

I think it sold quite well, its just it was not going to sell out so no sense queuing

FYI, If you recieve a mms you get a link to the o2 website to view it on. simply enter your phone number and a 4 digit pin to view it. Fairly simple especially on the iphone to view the web page.

Going to work out a way of sending them , quite suprised there is not the option on the o2 iphone web home page to do this with a pin. I'm guessing it should be able to access the pix on the phone and simply charge the regular amount for sending them.

You'll have to keep your eye on monysaving expert - I'm sure there will be some offers on there eventually ;) :)

I've certainly found it a very interesting read.
