So, yesterday, the iPhone 3G was available for pre-order on the O2 website. I promptly loaded up the website and added a 16gig version to my basket. I went through to the checkout. With my mouse hovering over the complete button, I suddenly had a change of heart and closed the window. Yes, why indeed? Well, you see, about 9 months ago, I made a schoolboy error (no, nothing to do with contraception), I signed a new 18-month contract with a different mobile network. So, I now have 9 months remaining. I kinda had in my head I was just going to get the new iPhone, and just pay off the remainder of my current contract, but it seems like such a waste of money (9 x £18).

I know I will give in eventually and go into an O2 store in the next couple of weeks and get a new iPhone, but I will be safe in the knowledge that I had the willpower to close that browser window.
