Here’s a quickie to round of the end of the working week.
Three has just announced a last minute January sale promotion for the iPhone 4 8GB. Anyone that goes into a Three store before the end of the month will not have to pay the upfront charge for the handset, a saving of £49.
The iPhone 4 8GB is available on £30 price plans, including 500 minutes, 5000 texts and 1GB of data.
Sounds pretty good value of you ask me.

Following on from BGR’s leaked RIM roadmap the other day further, slides have appeared over on the site detailing the specs of a few devices. As I pointed out then the Curve 9220 was of particular interest to me. You may think that a bit strange as it is an Edge only handset but I shall explain why.
With the BlackBerry Curve 8520 being massively popular here in the UK we have a huge market for a low spec and low cost BlackBerry. The 8520 was announced in mid 2009 so could this new 9220 be a natural upgrade for the 8520? If it can be offered at a similar price then RIM are set to retain their BlackBerry customers that use the 8520.
Of course, at this stage there are no guarantees the Curve 9220 will even be sold in the UK. You must remember that these details are leaked and although more than likely true the specs and exact details of the device may well change.
On a personal note I think Research in Motion would be mad not to launch the 9220 into the UK market. You hear me RIM?
You can see the specs below:
The easy to use BlackBerry Bold 9790, featuring a fantastic full QWERTY keypad and crystal clear 2.45 inch touchscreen, is now available to buy from Vodafone.
Running on the latest BlackBerry software – BlackBerry 7 – and powered by a fast 1Ghz processor, the 9790 meets all your essential mobile needs, and provides razor-sharp graphics and a smoother, faster browser. 8GB of on board memory (expandable to 32GB) means there’s plenty of room for all your music, photos and videos.
The BlackBerry Bold 9790 is available free on £31, 24 month price plans, including 600 mins, unlimited texts and 500MB of mobile data.
New and upgrading pay monthly customers will benefit from Vodafone Data Test Drive which lets them use as much data as they like, for whatever they like, for three months so they can fully explore what their brand new BlackBerry Bold 9790 has to offer. They can also get up to £270 for their old phone with Vodafone Buyback.
We know our customers lead busy lives and may not wish to wait for their phone to arrive at their home. They can choose to collect their new BlackBerry Bold 9790 in a store convenient to them – we’ll let them know when it’s there. When they come to collect it, customers can have all the contents of their old mobile transferred to their new BlackBerry Bold 9790 using Vodafone’s innovative RED Box.
