I was waiting for a Jailbreak anyway...

Just use the official free YouTube app from the app store. It's much better anyway

Looking at my upgrades with Orange, the Samsung S3 (too big anyway) is £149.99, the Samsung S2 (also a bit too big) is £109.99, the HTC One X is £109.99, etc - basically all the top spec phones cost, while the rest are free.

And the brand spanking new iPhone 5 16GB and 32GB is also free.

Despite my best intentions, I actually considered joining the iPhone gang. But I probably won't, I'll shop around, plenty of people offering other options cheap as chips.

Wouldn't bother at all if my HTC Desire hadn't gradually been slowing down over the last few months to the point where even Paul Wellens would now give it a run for its money.

That must be a mistake. The iphone is the most expensive handset there is and there is no way a network would deliberately hand them out for £110 less than a cheaper handset.

Indeed, T-Mob is doing the SIII free on the £26 a month contract.

Nope, it's still there. I can upgrade to the iPhone 5 16GB & 32GB models free. Perhaps Apple have chucked some money at them? Or it might be something to do with pushing 4G? No idea. I don't spend much, my tariff is only £26 a month, but it's there in black & white.

It's almost worth upgrading, selling, then paying for something else.

In fact, looking at the prices on eBay, that's not a bad idea.

Do it, that is an unbeleivable deal.

You can only upgrade to an iPhone 5 on Orange if you choose one of their specific 'iPhone' tariffs, all of which pretty much rip you off.
The reason the other handsets you mentioned cost money to upgrade to is because you can keep your existing tariff whith those phones.

Seriously thinking about ditching Orange and just going with giffgaff.

That's how I see it.
Something cr@ppy like 100 mins and hardly any internet access for £25.

I did have a look being with Orange but I'll stick with my sh!tty phone until contract up in Jan.

Currently get 800 mins, unlimited texts for about £20
