Re: ARM?

The ARMv8 CPUs in the A7 and later SoCs were designed by Apple not ARM; Apple is an ARM architecture licensee and does not use ARM's CPU designs (AFAIK).

Hey, we'll do 4G for £15, says O2 (just mind how you go on the 1GB limit)

Re: GreggS

FYI Giffgaff (or is that Apple ?) have just pushed out a carrier update which now enables tethering on iPhones (along with changing the carrier ID from O2 to giffgaff). As previously stated, tethering is only allowed on all *limited* data plan goody bags.
