Must be the Apple minions are smarter in the UK. The AT&T model is going to charge more for data. Just be sure to read the full contract with the new iPhone.

For f**ks sake, we get it.  You don't like Apple.  You made your point in your first post.  Perhaps an experiment in self-control would be a good idea.

For all the talk of 'Apple minions' and 'Apple Zealots', it seems to me that you are far more rabid in your anti-Apple beliefs.

The fact of the matter is, as far as OSes go, we've come a very long way from the dark days of Windows 98 and Mac OS 8.  There really isn't a huge amount wrong.  Yeah, things don't always work as we would like, but really is everything that big nightmare people make it out to be.  Firing anectdotes about bad experiences of each OS back and forth really doesn't mean dick in the grand scheme of things.  

Some people like Macs, some people like Windows/Linux PC - get the f**k over it.

And get some clunky phone I don't really want? No thanks. I'd rather pay the extra and get an iPhone. It's worth paying for IMO and in my experience.

Another weak minded Jedi sucked in by the marketing of the Dark side ;-)

£35/month is too much to pay for any private mobile phone contract.

Indeed.  I don't get where these crazy figures are coming from.  

I pay £5 a month for unlimited (although in practical terms it's 1GB) 3G data usage, plus some extra free services such as MSN and Skype calls on top of that.  

In total, I pay £20 a month, that includes 300 minutes to the missus (and anyone else on the same network) and 300 minutes or texts to anyone else (1 text = 1 minute).  And I got a half decent free phone in the deal (18 month contract)

All in all I'm paying about the same as I was on pay-as-you-go but getting much more use out of the phone (especially as I was being charged £3 a meg for data!!!!!)

What is worse, you're a Londoner..

Now I've got a mental image of Bloodline dressed up as a Pearly King singing "Roll Out the Barrels"...  :-o

Sure the Video Phone is a solution for a problem that doesn't exist... Most phone calls I make are often no more than a minute in length... I almost always moving around or doing something else as well as the call, so even if I did have a video link, I wouldn't be able to look at the camera... And sometimes I don't someone to know where I am... or as mentioned, I might be looking like I've just been run over...

So granted, I would almost certainly never ever use a front camera... but that doesn't stop me wanting one... and even demanding one in the next iPhone ;-)

And they're good for taking pics of yourself for an avatar right?  ;-)
