But the case is being brought by HTC - the ITC is investigating. This has happened many times before

HTC just exist to rip off the likes of Apple and Palm and anyone else that has a good idea, it goes straight into their phones. Just look at the time lines and feature set.
I find it quite amusing they can be so blatant about it and then file suit.
HTC were making touchscreen phones way before Apple brought out the iphone.

Like a boss.
Indeed. With most of the features of the iPhone.

Well, looking at Vodafone's pricing (which is gonna be the same all over, innit), I know this.
There is NO FUCKING WAY I am paying £250 for a phone.

If those turn out to be close, I'll be better off getting a PAYG and cutting my SIM.

The 3GS cost £275 for 32gb version when it came out...

Whereas I paid £99 for my 8GB 3G. So...
I'm an upgrade user (they offered me a 3GS for nowt in January), but I doubt that'll make a shred of difference.
They've already announced that they'll be cutting the talktime on the plan I was on in half. I have no idea what benefit there'll be to me staying with o2, at this point.
I need a new phone (the 3G is rapidly becoming more and more fucked), but I'm not going to bend over and take it up the arse for one when I can get something nearly the same for a fraction of the price, I've got better things to spend money on.

Pah Apple had that shit years ago

(it was never made)
No it didn't.
PAYGO was £340 for the 16gb, another £80 AFAIR for the 32g.

Apple were making touch screen devices 10 years before HTC was founded.

Nokia, HTC, Apple et al should just pay up now.

grrr! ruddy o2 website is too busy. all of those iphone *ahem* suckers, eh?
Just a guess from your posts like
Like you, what put me off an N900 was knowing that I'd spend way too much time trying my best to brick it in order to unlock some relatively pointless feature.
Since I've heard you can overclock the processor my interest has picked up again.

Come on, o2, let's hear the damage. So I can walk away.
Honestly, it was almost constant updates for the first couple of days, but now, nothing for 5 days!!!

What?
That's for the unlocked version, kind of OK, though without the Orange/02 one year free data/wifi.
The site crashed loads of times while trying to place an order.
