Any good?

I am also interested in getting one. However, it's them bloody 18-month contracts which scare me and deciding the pay as you go is worth it.

I'd be happy with 18 months, given the unlimited browsing. Will want to get some insurance for it though.

I'm also hoping that i can get some sort of deal. I'd be able to get it on my current contract (an old £45 12 month one). 18 months at £30 will give them the same money but keep me for longer. New one would have the browsing, old one wouldn't! Hopefully they'll be willing to negotiate!

Negotiation on an iPhone 3G contract?? Forget it.

I have one, I think its brilliant, the Exchange sync feature ala Blackberry tops it off. However I can see why some may not rate it, there are drawbacks and you should be aware of them before you end up an unhappy punter.

Far easier than using a keypad IMO. I use it to type out reasonably long emails and it's a piece of piss, very intuitive.

From what i've read the drawbacks are:

only a 2 mega pixel camera with no video recording function
No MMS
No Flash
Can only view, not edit MS docs

Anything else?

Thats about it yes. Benefits far outweigh them though for me.

one other thing i read was that it doesn't have "stereo bluetooth".

Does that mean you can't stream music to a car stereo (for example) using a bluetooth hub?

Not sure on that tbh, although to be fair the Bluetooth is a bit crap generally.
