11,000 pre-orders which were either dispatched for home collection or store collection today and 39,000 new sales. not bad for day one.
My little store normally does 2 connections a day, today we did 21!

The new iPhone sonds alot better to it's previous counter parts having a
removable battery will be better for it too...
is the battery rubbish terrible on the older iPhones?
I know if i leave my iPod touch on forgetting it's on the battery runs out quick but it lasts ages if
using it
Vodafone are charging heaps for the iPhone atm,
is there any rumour about them reducing it at later stage?
it's no good to me atm as im stuck on Tocco land till January next year :/

for anyone who uses the
tweakersoft aroundme app, they released an update a day or two back that includes augmented reality
its actually a little flakey as the app exits frequently when using the new feature, but when it works it does work well
here's some pubs near me

Lol,You had a W900 in 2002?
thats an '05-'06 phone lol.
Crazy how the iPhone is just selling even in the beginning of January when people are broke they are still queuing to get it. My mum is loving her new White 16GB iPhone3GS, works well as her iPod/weekend phone, its definetly faster than my dad's iPhone3G 8gb which also works as a weekend phone/ipod, both of them prefer their BlackBerrys for everyday use. Weirdly enough i see generaly in the coporate world the whole BB and iPhone combo is growing fast,when job shadowing at a Auditing firm i noticed a lot of people with either a E71 and iPhone/iPod Touch or BB and iPhone/iPod Touch lol,guess not all accountants are boring.
MissUK
Toccos are bad for you
cant you trade it for a 3G 8gb iPhone? Although i must say both 3G and 3GS have awful batt life compared to BBs and NOKIA 5800xm/N97.

haha Tocco Ultra II's also have lousey batterys Gucci im on
my 2nd battery and ive not had it one year yet, it's not worth alot if I sell it
£100 in theory, I was shocked to findout that 3 months after I had it
it's a nice phone but theres a few things im not remotley happy about tbh,
screen rotation cannot be turned of on the web so if your in bed it's well
akward to check weather or something quick..
I think i'll wait for the next iPhone anyway,
all these silly idiots who are now trapped for 24mths with the 3GS will be kicking
themselves when the next one comes along
ive got the iPod touch in the meantime
it's more or less the same thing minus the phone

MissUK, You got some solid points. When you start to enter text within a page (like on forums) you cannot rotate, really annoying. Posting within ares like on a thread was really guess work with the low screen-real-estate; that drove me insane.
plus I didn't enjoy how much I wanted peace & quite around my kids for me to use the great music apps (something for composing that makes the iPhone/iPod Touch stand out), and never got around to it. I hated spending $40/wk on ... GAMING! Can you believe it ... Eliminate Pro is ADDICTING! Beware guys of that game ... beware!
Even with the 3GS everybody complained how quite I was on the phone using wired headphones - broke my heart really. Battery life wasn't too bad but I did have to charge every nite if I knew I was going to use it during the day. Apple's battery life ratings are skewed for music/video playback with the phone radio OFF. I faired well vs many others though.
The core PIM is what really killed it for me ... personal and especially going back to work. Displaying was ok ... but data entry was slow, not too great (very limited), and using Note programs, Calendar apps, Task Apps, etc became VERY annoying and convoluted. What the hell was Apple thinking ... I don't even think the ancient Newton was this limited in the core PIM. This forced me to move on ... and I'm glad I did ... for my uses. I think I may own a 3rd G iPod Touch in a few months but I'm not craving it as much as I initially thought 1mth ago.
Oh yeah Masseur, changing start of week date is in the Settings> General (or somewhere there I think).

Although this wasn't for me I eventually googled it and there is no direct way to choose the day the week starts
instead you have to go to Settings > General > International > Regional format and pick a country.
United Kingdom sets the start of week to Monday while United States sets it to Sunday
of course, changing this setting affects other things too
bit weird if you ask me
