Pretty reasonable mate. Would be worth getting the iPhone 4 though imo.

For an extra £100 for the handset, and only £30 per month, you can get the same deal with three on an iphone 4.

only difference between the 3gs and the 4, appart from price, is the camera and video calling tbh. you can upgrade the 3gs to IOS4 software just by plugging it in to itunes... then it multi tasks and all the rest of it just like the 4! 
i'd just get the 3gs if i were you and update the software, saves a massive wait... thats what i did anyway.
hope it helps!

The phone is free on that tarriff.. but its only the 8gb version i think you had to pay a little more if you wanted the 16 or 32gb

Just to add to the comments that people have said about the only diff about a iPhone 4 is the cam and the video chat, you ain't looked at the iPhone 4 fully have you? It had longer battery life, also is faster just to name another 2 key features over the 3gs!

Try getting in contact with your home insurance mate.
You should be able to cover your phone for the year for under £30.
If not, theres a few bank accounts around for around £10 per month, which include mobile phone insurance aswel as breakdown cover and travel insurance etc.
