My workphone Palm Pre 2 is starting to annoy me..

How much is a cheap, iPhone 3g or 3gs these days. I need one I can put a full size vodafone sim in.

I have an unlocked 3GS for sale if you want to make me an offer! It's a black 16GB jobbie, was previously locked to Tesco/O2 but has been unlocked by the carrier. Condition is excellent, and I believe I've still got all the accessories etc. for it.

I've been looking on eBay and a 3G will still set you back around £100.

As the 3GS is a lot faster, has twice as much RAM, and can run the latest iOS version, I'd suggest you steer clear of the 3G if you can.

Oh my yes. I was just pointing out the relative definitions of the word 'cheap'. I would have expected the value to be a lot lower.

From looking at eBay, 3GSs seem to be going for around £150 at a minimum, so how does £140 delivered sound to you, Kovacs?

How 'bout a hunnerd and a quarter?

Actually, seriously, I do sort of need another 3GS, even a broken one, as I gave my spare away.

It doesn't just wipe itself randomly every couple of months like everyone else's I know, by any chance?

And cut off calls and lock up.... Not store contacts properly...

I wonder why we dropped them like hot spuds...

Hmm, interested. What's the condition like?

Is that after you milled hello kitty on the back?

No, after I painstakingly replaced the cracked case. The HK one I still have but it's a 1st gen 4GB.

Anyway, I see "4s" on ebay for under 300 now, they have come down a bit since the 4S arrived...
