The iPhone 3G comes out tomorrow.

  • The O2 shop in the Clarendon Centre will have "lots" in stock. It opens at 9am.
  • The Carphone Warehouse on Cornmarket will have 50 in stock (though you can put your name down today and sort of reserve one). It opens at 8am.
  • The Carphone Warehouse on Botley Road (on my way into work) is uncontactable by phone, ironically, so I have no idea when they open or how many iPhones they will have in stock.


[Poll #1220935]

ETA: the NOT AN OPTION bit was meant to appear at the end of the poll but LJ-poll-maker cocked it up! FAIL!

I try not to be an early adopter of anything, so I would probably recommend leaving a few weeks to (1) let the techlust die away so you can purchase with a clear head (2) they might be considerably cheaper once the rabid mob had had their fill of paying over the odds for getting one first and (3) they will probably have fixed the bugs and other issues that usually happens when they rush hardware out of the door.

But I'm me..and this probably isn't you.. :D

I am the rabid mob. I thought that was fairly clear from the post, and I was trying to pre-empt the "oh, just wait a few months" response...

Besides, the early bugs will be in the firmware, and you can upgrade that once you've got the hardware.

As it is, it may be months before I can get one anyway, as stocks seem to be so scarce. :-(
