Well if you want the JesusPhone 4S you best get saving at least £400 the device. Oh and got dont forget the prices come down the more months you sign up for. 24 months is obviously the cheapest.

And then in 9 months time the JesusPhone 5 will be out and you'll want that...

Why do you want an iPhone WWE?

Re: The iPhone thread

Does it matter why? because he does?

This isn't called a: 'question why people want their phone' thread.

Why are you calling it the JesusPhone

No I don't own an iPhone myself.

It's relevant and it's on topic - what's your point?

Re: The iPhone thread

My point is, your usage of terms like JesusPhone was pretty negative as was the general tone. Especially as the guy already stated that he's wanted one for for ages.

So I asked him what apps he wanted to run - what's your problem??!!

Pardon me for being intrested...


If he wanted a Blackberry and I called it a Crackberry would you still see that as a negative?

Re: The iPhone thread

I'd never go back to an iPhone tariff. They are expensive and no where near as good value as a normal contract.

I'd only consider one if it was sim free. Even then am happy with my S2.

Re: The iPhone thread

A lot of networks now have generic smartphone tariffs which the iPhone falls into, instead you just pay more for the device. Next upgrade I may shell out for the unlocked phone and go sim only. One good thing about iPhones is they hold their value quite when you want to sell it on.

Re: The iPhone thread

I have the 3 all you can eat data and iPhone tariff.
What;s good about it is that it includes tethering.
