For me not at lot has changed to be honest. All this $299 for 16gb worlwide price fix rubbish, will not affect me as I live in the UK and the price will surely get bumped up. As per usual everyones banging on about cheap prices, but have you seen the data plans and contract terms yet?......didn't think so. And anyone trying to pretend that the 3G iphone will not be expensive offline obvioulsy has no idea.

Apple has made a couple of ok adjustments, but it is very similar to the original. My interest in 3G and GPS has always been minimal due to the high cost of data plans. So basically apart form 2 things I don't need, the iphone remains a nice phone with all the same restrictions.

Now in terms of the M8, as I said in another thread, things are not great at the moment. I havn't really been on the forum too much lately and tbh the non-existent M8 is starting to bore me a bit. If there is no concrete evidence of an M8 release in a couple of monthes I may invest in another phone perhaps even an unlocked 3G iphone. But tbh I also find all this apple hype very boring too.

Ok so jobsy put some pretty standard tech (3G and GPS) in the iphone and showed a few apps, added a few functions that should have been there in the first place, expanded his global empire and kept his platform as closed as it ever was......not really that exciting if you ask me. Oh and lets not forget his homage to early 2000's telephony >> his continued dedication to the ever so retro '2 mega pixel camera'

The 3G iphone looks decent, in a few monthes a few million more people will own one and most will continue to act like they are setting some kind of new trend and are in some way original..........blah blah blah yawn yawn....zzzzzzzz
