I'm glad you had a good laugh - we all need some more laughter in our lives. But, while I do see the iPhone being successful in the UK, it's not just my point of view. The article I referenced above is based on numbers from O2. Time will tell I thought it would be most effective, Raidium :)

Sorry to tell you, Will, but when the N95 8GB/N82/Viewty/Samsung Soul/K850i are all free on 12 month(cheap) contracts and the iPhone is only free on 18 month(expensive) plans, I don't see the iPhone having success like it does in your mind. There is still hope, actually! Apple could run adverts on TV every 15 minutes like they did with the first iPhone! Oh, that didn't work too well the first time either... “Apple could see millions of iPhone 3G handsets sold in the UK alone”

Not a relevant comparison methinks. Of course the numbers don’t take into account that neither the iPod or PSP has a $70 per month two year subscription charge attached to them.
