    so i decided to get an iphone guys,but i am a bit confused now...

    so there is 3G and 3GS, i allready looked into sticky, and it answered alot of questions, but i still got one more, is it really 2xtimes fester or its just a marketing tactics?

    so i have option to go to O2 and get signed on bill pay to get iphone for 200eu (3GS 16gb), but i dont understand how does internet charges work with billpay, could anyone explain me plz.

    OR

    I can get iphone from donedeal.ie for 350eu and stay with prepay, then internet would cost me 1eu for 50mb per day, which is really not alot...
    ( I am kind of afraid of getting iphone on donedeal.ie.. is 350 normal price? or is it sounds like a scam? How safe buying iphone on donedeal.ie is alltogether guys? )

    "i am on prepay )2 at the moment"

    what would you suggest guys?

    P.S. Is it posible to buy games/plications on pc, and tranfer them to iphone withouth connecting it to internet?

    My advise get Iphone from adverts instead of Donedeal, coz apple release new iphone every year once you buy from o2 you are stuck with 18 month contract.
    3gs 16gb should be around 400.
    yeah 3gs is faster than 3g ( better processer, better camera and video recording)

    99c for 50 mb is good but bit expensive imo, why not you get clear sim and have data add-on for 15€ 1gb? rumour has ito2 are launching new data add-on in near future.

    yes you can buy games from app store and then transfer it to phone via pc ( itunes) so no internet connection required for this.

    Most of the phones on Adverts seem to be locked to 02 but priced as though they weren't.

    If you buy an unlocked phone is your computer's Itunes going to want to lock it again or has the all the latest firmware been unlocked for good?

    No point paying €400 for a phone and having to pay O2 their cut for 18 months if the phone is only €100 from O2.
