We have a brand new unwrapped first generation iPhone (charger is slightly used, but hey.....) which would be good for jailbreaking, or just using as a WIFI iPod Touch. PM me if interested.
presumably this means you use it in Turkey with local sim?
i only use my blackberry for email when overseas, but would dearly love a solution that lets me use www on a phone at a decent rate when roaming - not found anything yet. i have to use my laptop with unlocked datacard (local sim) for www overseas.
still my phone renewal isn't until july so there's going to be more on offer then
I've asked Vodafone for PAC codes today - I think I've been convinced and will go for the iPhone. I would've prefered to stay with Vodafone but I'm not happy with the phones they have on offer. They also couldn't seem to give any really good deals unless I was willing to change my number, which I'm not.
Watch this space for some feedback when the new toys arrive...
We have bought iPhones from both, and as much as I used to like CW, we were misled by them on two occasions, notably on the requirement to buy their insurance for the iPhone. Your airtime contract will be with O2 whoever you buy from, so my suggestion would be to buy the iPhone from them as well.

I agree. If you have the option, might as well go straight to O2.
I am on Vodafone and just got the Sony Ericsson X1, and what a phone!
QWERTY Keyboard, Wi-Fi, Push email, aGPS, WinMo (Tons of applications out there), Touch Screen, Camera, Bluetooth, Radio, The best screen on any phone (WVGA), Office Mobile......it goes on.
I hear what Tracey says about it, but once you do some hacks, and install 3rd party add-ons the device is amazing. I have added Touch Flow 3D (found on HTC phones) to one of the panels and it vastly improves the user experience.
See 'xda developers' if you want to see more!
The only issue I have got with it is the poor signal strength. But I do live in the sticks so reception isn't great anyhow, and also enjoyed one of the best antennas for signal strength on my old phone - the N95 (Set the standard in signal strength).
The more and more I use it the better it gets
I did look at the Blackberry Storm – Nice phone. Feels good, and comes with good business apps. But I found the touch screen weird. You push the screen down so it clicks to make a selection - Gets a bit of getting used to. But the thing that did it for me was having no Wi-Fi.

I decided to go for the iPhones and got my Vodafone PAC codes no problem.
Called O2 and ordered the iPhones last week.
Having not receiving anything by yesterday I gave them a call to find that the orders had been cancelled. No one knows why, payments were deducted and credit checks passed.
So, reordered again yesterday and should (hopefully) receive them tomorrow.
I hope this is not a taste of the future.
Read the next installment on the blog tomorrow....
