Apple iphone 3g

This is for australian release only...

Well as compaies start releasing their information about price plans
and so on i just thought i would post a little something here...

For anyone considering purchasing your iphone on optus or vodafone
just be aware that basically anywhere outside major cities their so
called "3G Network" is actually not compatable with the iphone. As
well as this i laughed at how optus is now also offering free wifi,
now i don't know about you guys but i haven't seen a single optus
public wifi anywhere...

On the other hand Telstra, while we may hate them, is offering the
iphone for 270$ upfront on a 30$ plan or free i believe on the 79$ Cap
plan. This includes free wifi at all telstra hotspots, which is
basically every maccas, starbucks, shopping centre and such in
australia.

Also for those of you who haven't actually watched the keynote
presentation on the iphone really should watch it...

pretty expensive, and no telstra wont have it that cheap.

 

Thank you for the info. :]

 

It may be cheap, but if you want too get the full functionality out of the phone then i honestly can't see how having such severely limited wifi AND 3g capabilities anyone would choose it on another company... 3 is the only other company in aus with a fully compatible 3g network and from the looks of it they may not be getting it....
