iphone wanted
I've had a Google G1 for a couple of years and fancy going back to the iphone - probably a 3GS.
If anyone has one going cheap (any spec), or they fancy a part exchange I am all ears 
Cheers,
Raz

U2u sent
Probably of no help
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Okay, thanks for all the offers guys but I have decided to do a complete U-turn. After playing with a friend's iphone 3GS I realised just how
good the Android operating system really is!
Don't get me wrong, the iphone is a really competent phone but the Android is much better suited to nerdy types (like me) and while the 3GS is a
fairly good spec and fast to use (compared to my old 2G anyway) the later Android phones are head & shoulders above it IMO, having faster
processors, more memory, very tweakable etc. Added to this, most iphones will need to be 'jailbroken' to get them to play nicely which
just seems a real hassle for getting updates and installing some apps.
I'm now looking for a Nexus One - iphone 4 performance for a lot less cost  The only downside is the relatively low number of Android apps
available (only 10% of Apple's apparently!) but the number is growing all of the time.
Cheers,
Raz

You'll get fed up of Android very quickly. Yes, technically, it's a lot more capable, but do you really want all that complication in a
mobile device? The beauty of the Apple is it's simplicity, and the fact that it does a few things well rather than everything badly.
As before, I have a 3GS for sale, mint, boxed, all unused accessories apart from the power cable (just the cable, not the plug). £275, no offers
