A friend told me today that they would not be buying the iPhone until the terms and conditions were clarified for businesses.
Hang on, I thought, O2 were encouraging me to upgrade my business tariff to the iPhone only two weeks ago. A little digging and sure enough, right in the iPhone Tariff FAQ it says this:
All usage must be for your private, personal and non-commercial purposes.
So, looks like I need to call up business customer support and get them to clarify …
Added: Oh, and even though I am a long standing and loyal customer, both business and private … I pay the same as a brand new customer. No upgrades, no discounts, no offers … way to keep my loyal!

There is still a lot of things to iron out with the iPhone. There’s been a few niggley bugs discovered as you would expect from new tech. You have to keep in mind; howmany phones have Apple made before compared with the likes of Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola? The iPhone is still a very lovely thing, albeit with a tiny camera, no video capture, as far as I’m aware no external speakers, etc. It’s not perfect, but then few cult items are and it will be popular for a very longtime. Lets face it, the iPod wasn’t the best on the market on release but the name is generally used when referring to any MP3 player (I was a Creative Zen Juke Box man myself).
I’m awaiting v2 and then might jump on board. My N95 does everything wonderfully and has ‘useful’ things like a bar-code reader as well as the GPS, word processor, spreadsheet and presentation s/ware – I can even buy a bluetooth kepboard for it :0P

I have written about why I am waiting for version 2 here but basically while it looks and works lovely, it doesn’t *do* what I need
Heh – that’s more-or-less how I felt before getting my new phone. Check out the Nokia
Good piece by the way – if you ever want to post over on http://idleparis.co.uk feel free ;0,
