Mac Forum / Country Specific / UK Mac Group / September 2007iPhone - where to buy?
As luck would have it, my birthday, a day off and the release of the iPhone all happen on the same day. This means I'm at liberty to skip gaily into Nottingham, plonk my debit card on the counter and exclaim "shopkeep, please furnish me with one of your exquisite iPhones!". My question is this: Should I purchase it at an 02 shop, Carphone Whorehouse, or the Apple store? Ordinarily, I would chose the Apple store, but it isn't a proper one, but a branded re-seller. What will other people be doing? Thom > What will other people be doing? Depends where I am. Wherever is nearest to my location that day. Or if they open up for pre-orders on the Apple Store I might do that. I've decided I am getting one; on the £35 contract. I'll redirect my work phone incoming calls to the new number on the iPhone, and use the work Nokia E61 mainly as a blackberry.

I've been mulling the same question, with no concrete conclusions yet. If you are considering your local Apple reseller, check they'll be stocking it first. My local one (Bournemouth) say they won't be. Maybe it is just the 'proper' Apple stores that will have it, unless you know different.

Yes, I suppose I ought to check... their website isn't giving anything away. I suspect I'll end up getting one at an o2 store, as there are a few in Nottingham. Thom > This means I'm at liberty to skip gaily into Nottingham, plonk > my debit card on the counter and exclaim "shopkeep, please > furnish me with one of your exquisite iPhones!". You ought to add a haughty, "And none of your lollygagging -- be quick about it, fellow!" Style is everything, you know.

Style is everything, you know. Of course, and I'll announce my intention to purchase by rapping my cane smartly upon the counter. Thom |
