OK... regarding the networks choosen, this latest piece about O2 for the UK and T-Mobile for Germany... well, that just makes no sense!! the main reason being that O2 are only in 4 Countries (Ireland, UK, Isle of Man and Germany). why would the go with such a small provider and cut out it's main market. We have 4 Mobile networks here in Ireland (Voda, O2, Meteor and 3(Three)), and the only one that's worth it's salt is Voda (with Meteor in second). If Apple choose O2 for the UK they will be severely limiting their Market, as i don't know anyone who would wish to go onto that network for the sake of a phone!
