If you buy one from 02 you will be stuck on their contract.
Hype is the right word, thats all they are... Hype with a piss poor camera

Dad has one, i used it all of the weekend for the net lol, its great!!
Bit expensive mind, works out well over 700 a year just to have one or something like that
they cannot be unlocked, the sim is locked to o2 which cannot be accessed from the outside..

Can be unlocked in 2 mins if you know what you're doing. 
I wouldn't have one because they will only replace it an hour after I walk out of the shop with one!

theres a feature built in so it cant be unlocked and if it is it just gets blocked or "bricked" Apt because thats what it will be as useful as.

They can be unlocked & the sim can be changed. If their firmware is updated to disable unlocks then some cyber pikey will break the new firmware and release the new unlock.
If no software unlocks can be made then it will be back to soldering on the circuit board. You cant stop these things. No one has been able to yet & Apple certainly wont be the first to pull it off.

They look nice, they're just expensive for what they are...
I've got an N95 at the moment and i get an upgrade next month... Might sell the N95 and the upgrade phone i get, buy an Iphone.... and if i don't like it, just sell it and get something else! But i'm really not sure at the moment... my sister works in Carphone Warehouse and she's said the texting feature is a bit wierd on it (and thats what i use my phone for mainly).
