I never knew it could be so good

All my mobile phones in the past have been so boring. Now I have my 3G iBrick I can spend hours on the computer clicking on buttons playing the thrilling game, "try to make your phone work".

And if I get suicidal I can make an emergency call on on my iBrick. Fantastic.

The GPS is excellent too - although I can't use it I know I haven't moved from my desk in over three hours. Cool!

I hope the next version of iTunes has a counter so you can see how many times you've failed to activate your iBrick - that way you can have even more fun trying to beat your past scores of" attempts per minute".

Oh and as for all the "bleading edge" comments - this is not a new product - its a slightly updated version of an existing product.

Think you can use that new iPhone sport? Think Different!

O2 Order confirmation is meaningless

I got my email at 7:40 on Monday, and happened to be online. I ordered a 16Gb iPhone with no problems by 8:22 and got a confirmation at 8:38 saying they would tell me if the order had been accepted.

By the end of today I still hadn't recieved the email telling me "it had been accepted" or any details confirming delivery (and the website update said it was "being processed") so I called. It seems I was too slow and although I placed the order and payment on my CC is "pending" there's no stock.

I've been told that I need to wait until the 10th of July to see if they have more stock and IF I'll be "lucky enough" to get one. 1st come 1st served? That's clearly not true.

I can see why its called the JESUS! :( phone now.
