Apple is going to learn the hard way that to be competitive in the cell phone market they need to come out with products fast and that the average cell phone user has the attention span of a gold fish, when the new Nokias come out, guess what, many cell phone users will trade in their iPhones for the Nokias and just use their iPods for music.

Iphone, £299, If we're lucky it'll be £29 a month with unlimited data, if we're unlucky the prices will start at £35 a month.

£299 is a crazy amount but the rumoured euro price is $399 (sorry don't have a euro key!)so i guess it would fit, and the ipod touch is £275 over here for 16gb.

We shall see eh?]]>Sep 17th 2007 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 18th 2007 4:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 18th 2007 4:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 17th 2007 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 17th 2007 12:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 17th 2007 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/

For this reason alone was why i left the shower of shite that is o2 and am now with vodafone and will be getting an iPhone and unlocking it to vodafone as soon as possible.

Im also glad that o2 are getting shaffted big style with 40% revenue charges with any hope the company will go bust in a matter of months and people will unlock their iPhones to other networks.

Sorry for the rant had to get that off my chest!

From what I heard from someone who works at Rogers, Ted Rogers basically told Steve Jobs to go fuck himself when Apple asked Rogers for a similar scheme that AT&T signed onto. Apple wants, IIRC, 10% of the monthly service revenues and for the carrier to offer an unlimited data plan for a reasonable price (à la $60 AT&T plan) which Rogers doesn't actually have - CAD$210/month for 500MB is the top plan available.]]>Sep 17th 2007 11:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 18th 2007 9:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Apr 7th 2008 11:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/Sep 17th 2007 7:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.pagereboot.com/?url=http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/]]>Sep 17th 2007 8:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/18/live-from-apples-mum-is-no-longer-the-word-event-in-london/
