You can get any phone unlocked to fit any network, i think it usually costs around 10-15quid. most new phone are for a certain network though, have you had a look online?

I've had a quick look Jen but haven't 'delved' into things at the moment 

Sprouty, I assume that you could buy just about anything that she could put her sim card in, but I'm no expert so I'll shuddup!

 

While we're on the topic, I'm thinking of getting an iphone 4s next week, anyone got one? is it worth it, or shall i just get the iphone4?

Sorry Sprout I don't really know ..... But it sounds feasible ....

I bought a phone for about a tenner from car phone warehouse a while back. It immediately took my ASDA sim without change. I use it in Europe and it works out dead cheap. I have an iPhone

Thanks Super  

 

I don't deal in Apple, but I'm sure I've seen an article about I-phones in the pooter magazine I buy, on the Metro going home tonight. I'll have a look for you tomorrow  

3 16gb and recently got my son a 4. The major differences seem to be with photos! I know that O2 are still doing deals on 3. Try the website. Someone will talk through the pros and cons in a chat set up!

Correction.. my post should say can and i will correct it now

I have an iPhone 4S Super .... I love it

I've been looking at the iphone 3gs (my bro just got one) and it looks great, im not one to pay over the odds lol Cant see how much of an upgrade it can be..... but i bet im wrong

The 'Unlocking' thing is only necessary if you want to take your current number to a new network. If all you want to do is put your current networks' sim in a 'sim free' phone then go ahead, there's nothing to stop you. I've just done it for the MIL, 'cos the original handset was too small for her.

Thanks Fluffs. I'll talk to the peeps at work and see what they think 

Soops...  the main benefit of the 4s over the 4 is not so much the better camera..   its the Siri voice recognition... 

 

its bloody amazing... 

 

you can say to it..  "play me a song"..    it will go & find something it thinks you might be in the mood for...   you say "no, find me something slower"..   it makes apologies & goes & finds you a power ballad or sommat!

 

Tis really good.

 

Get the 4S

I know they will! But no 02 for me, only network I can get even a smidgeon of a signal here is vodaphone

I agree with Ditty ... Siri is fantastic...

I know  And you can 'talk in' your replies to texts etc. etc. I am rather taken with that idea and there's v little difference price wise between the 4 and 4s. Prob's won't use half of the stuff on there, but I do need a new phone, (contract out on old one last month.) I have a work blackberry and I really don't rate that at all, so I  definitely won't be getting one of those, even 'though it would cost me nothing!

Okay, you've talked me in to it......took loads of of persuading didn't I?

you will love it Super ... And he talks back to you too

Mmmmm, now I'm not so sure

I told him I loved him and first he said impossible and next time he said * that's nice , now can we get back to work * lol

@ Baz about to elope with her phone!

I'm one of those people that thinks texting is a bit technical, so an iphone has never even entered my radar.   Reading Baz's posts though - I WANT ONE NOW  ... are they easy to get work?   (I've got one of those android thingies... I always take the upgrades when they come up but i've only just worked out how to get online...)

OMG....Kaffy's planning a love affair too!

 EFFT & Kaffy On a serious note.... I find the Iphone very easy to use Kaffy.......that's really what I like about Apple stuff....

I could be tempted to get one after Christmas but I hate having to pay up front for a phone and then pay a monthly contract as well 

Ooooooo we're all going to have an iphone love in

Me too Pengy, but in this instance, think it may well be worth it. I think it could well be one of my Christmas presents to myself

Nah, I'll stick with my Sony Ericson T280i. I very rarely use it and no-one calls me on it, unless it's hubby calling me back for something.

 

The most it gets used is for texting my sisters (one in London and one in Dorset) when I am travelling to visit one or other of them.

 

Last time I visited I forgot to check on how much money was in my phone and ended up texting my sister to phone hubby to let him know when the train would arrive at Wishaw..'cos I didn't have enough left to phone, but did have enough to text and he doesn't know where to find the text messages!

dont forget you can text your home phone and it produces an animated message of your text when answered 

 

my lad does it all the time - some of the translations are very funny but  understandable 

Is that not something that's specific to your network though?

Get thee behind me Satan.....

 

I'm verrrrrry tempted....

I think  it works on every network - give it a  try  from your mobile and see if it works 

You know I said up there my friends phone was old. This is it    Only in pink
