Yeah, I'm watching this stuff about the 3G version unfolding very closely. Will be interested to see what happens.
Anyway, I'm calling it a night - will probably head to AT&T tomorrow to try and work out a way to get one of my rellies to activate it and then see what happens from there.
There are heaps of iPhone photos around the interweb obviously, but nevertheless, here are mine. As you can see, I haven't got very far yet  |

Geez, it does look nice :-)
You might have to do global roaming with AT&T when you come back home Ozi!

I will be watching this with great interest...
global roaming on an AT&T phone in AUST... would be interesting to see if there are extra costs involved, and how much it equates to (cost/30 sec).
Also can't wait to see if someone manages to get another SIM in one working...
or if you pay out (early cancellation I think I read somewhere was USD$175)... will it then work on other networks?!?!?!
I for one am thinking it that is the case... create an American iTunes account...
pony up to AT&T... then cancel (pay the $175 cancellation fee) then try using an AUST SIM card?
Can't wait to watch if it is possible to use internationally on a local SIM card!

There have been some TV adds from Optus introducing a high speed WIFI network called OPEL.
I was wondering if this type of network would be compatible with the iPhone. If it is wouldn't it be a better solution than a 3G version of the phone for the Australian version.
Any thoughts.

Opel is wimax. Would be better than 3G, but not available country wide until 2009

Australia/3G iPhone speculation
Ok, im probs gonna get introuble for stating yet another iPhone thread, but I couldnt help this one. Check it out, a supposed leaked ad for the 3G iPhone http://www.tuaw.com/2007/09/08/leake...-3g-iphone-ad/ . Dunno if its real or not, but still makes very intersting reading and speculation. Makes sense for the price drop and is a better match for the european launch as edge just wont cut it over there. MInd you there has been no FCC filing as we would all know about it, so yeah, finger crossed its real.

if its true, ill have to offload my iPhone and get the update. Will a U.S. 3G version work here, or are networks more with the Euro networks ??. I only ask this cause I know although 3G there are different frequencies used.
Im not really up on all of this. Its easier for me to get a phone from the US. so id like to use that option, but if not, Ill have to find a source in the UK to get one for me.
