Worth it? What sort of markup did you manage to pull off?

They will. As usual they will bring a white one out shortly before the new one is released, to bump up sales on the old one.

White one only came out recently because they couldn't manufacture it, + a big helping of cashing in.

Yep, well with the 4 I got a 32gb one on 12 month contract with Tesco when noone could get them and it sold for near £800. It paid for the phone, the contract for the 12 months and about £300 left over.

They still can't manufacture them, they look like they gave up caring and just sold them with the problems they were trying to resolve

•24 month contract
•£25 a month
