Just ordered mine off the Orange website. They reckon it'll be delivered by tomorrow! Not convinced by that, so we'll see.

Boss had family-related issues so couldn't go to queue last night and I didn't want to be at the apple store on my own.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Still considering whether the 4S is a worthy upgrade from 4, or whether i should just save the money and stick with my current iPhone 4 for another year....

Well i have been messing with my 4S for about an hour now (after vodafone finally activated the sim  :fighting:)

And it is noticeably slicker. Not played with SIRI yet as been modifying my Incase SnapCase to fit as they have moved the Mute button down slightly.

I've had my phone since about 8.30am Friday and loving it. Siri can be a bit temperamental but I guess it will improve with upgrades and you can't search for places in the uk yet. I had a 3G before so notice a massive difference so it was well worth the wait for me! Overall very happy customer  :happy2:

Queued up for mine since 5:30 am, got to the till to only be told they wasn't doing business upgrades  :surprised:
but we was told they were, then they couldn't do it because we didn't have a bank statement and it turned out to just be a complete mess! but non the less i got them to hold back mine and my brothers 2x64GB White for us to pick up later in the day! got it now all restored and i must say its amazing the difference in speed and quality of the phone!

But imo Seri is way to addictive + a good pull on the birds as there so amazed that you can talk directly to you phone and it will respond asap with the complete correct answer! only down side is that the Seri, uses USA language and needs a little tweaking for UK slag and pronunciations.

But other than that a wicked phone! 64GB White was defiantly the better choice, not only because there very rare atm, but because the resale valve of the phones when the iPhone 5 comes it will be much greater than all the others  :grin:

I've had mine since about 10 on release day. I think it's defiantly worth the upgrade from the 4. I was amazed at how quickly websites load when not in a wi-fi zone, it's so much faster than the 4! Also very impressed with the camera and hd video recording. And it's still by far the best looking phone on the market in my opinion.

There are a couple of things I'm not so impressed by, firstly Siri. I think it has huge potential however, at the moment it's not uk friendly and the update isn't available until 2012. Finally, the battery isn't brilliant but I suppose that is to be expected these days from a smartphone.

More and more battery cases on the market these days, getting slimmer and more stylish too.

I think with a couple of updates Siri will be  :happy2: :happy2:

Not yet. Which i find quite odd. I received an invoice from Apple tonight though.

Been playing with them since Friday. Well impressed with the phone, but battery doesnt seem great. Still gets me through the day though and i tend to leave it docked all day at work.

I need to stop reading about these 4s iPhones.

I don't need to upgrade,
I don't need to upgrade,
I don't need to upgrade,
I don't need to upgrade.....

...do I ?

Is anyone else thinking the same?  :sad1:
