    OP, how many more threads are you going to start about the new iPhone, despite being told no one knows anything, until apple and the networks announce it?

    Test out the networks signals where you live work and play with a free pre pay sim. Then which ever one offers the best signal in conjunction with the best phone cost and plan is the one to go with I'd imagine.

    I'm looking for the opinion of CURRENT iPhone users!! Not info on the iPhone 5 or what ever they call it.

    I'm not asking for info on it? I can resource that kind of info myself. Is there a problem with me starting threads looking for peoples opinions? That's what boards is for.

    That's what the Apple Media Devices board is about :pac:

    Anyway, you did ask which network would be the best for the new model. It could change significantly depending on what offers the networks bring out, and what you define to be "best".

    All I want is 1-2GB of Data, free calls to Metoer, and perfect coverage in Dublin City Centry and my home. Once I get that for cheap enough, I'm happy. These requirements may be totally unsuitable for you however.

    Just as an aside, it's often better to go with Bill Pay if you intend on keeping the phone for a year or two.

    I imagine that one network will be pay for the sole righ to retail it when it releases, so you may not have much of a choice OP ;)

    This wont happen any more. They'll all (apart from a few) have it at the same time I'd imagine

    Why do you say that? Vodafone missed out good-o when O2 had the iphone and they were doing the black berry.

    Best advice is from Capt Morgan, buy it from apple and its unlocked and the same price

    I'd be surprised if they do this with the 5, there is too much money to be made by all involved

    I'd put money it'll launch with the networks that launched the 4s. Apple really dont do the one off deals with networks anymore. They've too much money to make
