Pre-ordered one from O2. I had to go for the white 32GB, as the black 32GB was sold out. It cost £299 with a £26 a month contract running for 2 years. I'm recycling my iPhone 4 for £135, so that means I'm paying £164.99 for the upgrade! Should be delivered in a few weeks.

No, you're paying £789 for the upgrade...

well, if the contract is just as expensive as his previous one he really only pays £165 "for the upgrade", but yea a good amount of the contract costs are caused by the phone - consumers really should be more aware of that
