Re: 3

Re: 3
 

Never will be. Not unless they make it 3G lol....If you want something similar, but has better usablity, then I'd highly recommend the LG U990 Viewty :)

thanks 4 that the mobile looks geat is it out on network 3 and do u think its worth getting

Re: 3
 

You clearly didn't read his reply.

O2 have an EXCLUSIVE contract to market the Iphone. It is also not 3g. There are two reasons why 3 will NOT be marketing it anytime soon.

Also, bear in mind it has major problems getting a signal (even in strong signal areas). Still, being on 3, you'll probably be used to having no signal most of the time.

i don't mean the iphone i mean the lg u990

Re: 3
 

Odd, my 3 phone NEVER lost it's signal, even when I was camping in the woods. My new Virgin phone however loses it's signal more than my 3 phone did.

Re: 3
 

Yes the phone is out (I've got one myself on 3) but you have to search round a bit cos they are going like hot cakes lol :)

Re: 3
 

Fair enough..

Re: 3
 

all iPhones are locked to o2.

Re: 3
 

hi people im getting a new mobile next month couse my contract runs out anybody know any mobile thats worth getting

Re: 3
 

You really don't like the iphone do you. It has as good a signal strength as any phone I've used.

What the Viewty might have a better camera but as for useabilty is not even in the same ball park as the iphone. Freind has one and is like going back to the dark ages using one compared to the iphone.

Re: 3
 

I don't like them either. And I've never used one. I think that they're overpriced, and being forced onto one network to get one is ridiculous.

Re: 3
 

iPhones are a complete waste of time and money. Don't expect any support from O2 with it either. Management didn't have a clue so neither did front line advisors.

@wwe For the latest handsets on the three network, why don't you look at their website?

3 do have the LG U990 Viewty in Silver here

Call their retentions department (based in India) for the latest deals to see what they can offer you. (Assuming you are a current 3 customer.

Personally I would take the N95 8GB pack or a Sony Ericsson handset.

Let me know what you would like from your phone and I will be able to recommend one to you.

I have worked for both 3 and O2.

Re: 3
 

Many phones are only available on 1 network, no one complains about the o2 xda's.

I don't think it was over priced and I shelled out the £269 to get it. Perhaps you should try one before you give out your opinion.

Why are they a waste of time? Finding mine the best phone purchase I've made since my xda2. I normally change my phones every 9 months trying to find one I can stick with (o2 select customer) but would only change this for a newer better model.

The package is also pretty much exactly what I want as well with the unlimited data. Shame its not able to be used as a data modem but then all it would be for is checking mail and a quick surf which is a doddle to do on the phone anyway.
