iPhone 3G

Only on O2 - the exclusive carrier for Apple's 3G iPhone in the UK and Ireland.

iPhone 3G combines all the revolutionary features of iPhone with 3G networking that is significantly faster than the first generation iPhone. The device has built-in GPS for expanded location based mobile services, iPhone 2.0 software (which includes support for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync) and runs the hundreds of third party applications already built with the recently released iPhone SDK. These can be accessed via iTunes.

So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before been seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.
