Can I order my IPhone already?

mmm wait for the official announcement from Vodacom and then pop off to your nearest Vodashop perhaps?
 
V3G, I can only assume you took the 1st spot? :-) Seriously, come Tuesday the whole world will want Iphone's. I want to plan ahead and book my 2 (yes two) now. Our contract upgrades were ready months ago, and I need my new IPhone :-)

Well it should be a roaring sucess!
I'm rather hoping to get my hands on a HTC TyTnII in the coming months...

I'm currently trying to figure out what the next phone will be (for me). I currently use a TyTn and are looking at either the TyTn II, Samsung i780 and a BB Curve.

As I posted before my ideal phone would be a 'business' version of the iPhone with a full slide-out keyboard. It's current touch keyboard is useless for serious e-mail writing.

Agreed on the full slide out keyboard issue with the iPhone.
I like the touch screen features of it, but would rather dreamily opt for the Sony Xperia. :drools: Will be checking this phone out when I get to Europe later this year. I haven't heard or seen much about the phone besides this website, but it so dreamy and has all the functionality that one requires.
 
Looks like this iphone might actually be worth getting, from Engadget:

We have it from a reliable source that a version of the 3G iPhone's firmware has been released -- possibly for carrier partners currently field-testing the device -- and has since been dissected. While nothing is ever guaranteed, in combing through the raw data, we think we got more than enough information on the low-level hardware and drivers that run the device to make some informed conclusions about what we can expect: quad-band GSM support (as we currently have), A-GPS (as we'd already gotten from another source), and tri-band UMTS / HSDPA -- which would make the new iPhone(s) 3G-capable in just about every market in the world. Hardware details after the break. We're through the looking-glass, people!

All the dirty details:

* Infineon PMB6952 / S-GOLD3 six-band UMTS / HSDPA transceiver (as we'd heard)
* Murata LMRX3JCA-479 tri-band amplifier (we're assuming for the 3G)
* Sony SP9T antenna switch for GSM / UMTS dual mode
* ARM 1176JZF-S - Main CPU (same as in 1st gen iPhone)
* Skyworks 77427 chip - UMTS / HSDPA tx 1900MHz, rx 2100MHz
* Skyworks 77414 chip - UMTS / HSDPA 1900MHz
* Skyworks 77413 chip - UMTS / HSDPA 850MHz
* Internal build model number: n82ap (1st gen iPhone was model m68ap)
* UMTS Power Saving option - on or off
* Hooks for Global Locate Library (GLL), software that handles A-GPS related commands for the host processor
