Am I the last person to hear this rumour? I have it from two seperate sources that during Q4 2009, Apple will drop its exclusive deal with Telefonica/O2 for the UK, and the iPhone will be available on all UK networks. That would obviously include 3 UK given the comments that its UK md, Kevin Russell, made about how he'd like to be able to offer Apple's iconic handset. Meanwhile, my source gave the most bizarre reason I've encountered for swapping over to an iPhone. Apparently there's an app for the iThingey which turns it into a mosquito repeller. Better search for that on the App Store, then!
