Sky are running a new and improved introduce a Friend scheme, where you can invite a friend and received a free Apple iPod Touch 8GB. This is a welcomed improvement from the M&S voucher…

Love Sky? Introduce a friend to Sky TV

Do you know someone who would enjoy Sky as much as you do? Invite them to join and we’ll give you an 8GB iPod touch to say thanks. What’s more, we’ll add 1 month of Sky Mobile TV for free.

Your friend could take a free Sky+HD box with standard set-up online (normally £30), plus £25 M&S vouchers if they join Sky TV online with their first HD package. Once your friend has joined and made the first payment on their subscription, we’ll send you your iPod touch.

Your friend must join Sky TV by 24 March 2010.

Go on, sign them up!

If you want to join Sky send me and email and I will set you up with my ID

Apple have revealed the Apple iPad. It seems that the rumours were right. Im still puzzled as to what the main function of the iPad is for? To me it looks like an overgrown iPhone. Looks impresive though.

Prices are set at:

16GB –
$499 WI-FI
$629 WI-FI + 3G

32GB -
$599 WI-FI
$729 WI-FI + 3G

64GB -
$699 WI-FI
$829 WI-FI + 3G

The 16GB seems a reasonable price. The iPad is going to rival most netbooks, with a high probability of dominating the market. I for one would prefer an Apple iPad rather than an eee PC.

If you think its too expensive… fear not! you can get one free from Free Apple iPad They will be up on there and available shortly so dont hang about and sign up for your free ipad (or any other gift) quick!

You can expect Wi-Fi models shipping in late March. 3G models shipping in April. (This is the Apple.com other country’s are awaiting confirmation.)

Thoughts?

The iPhone 3GS is coming to Tesco Mobile, confirmed by a press release on Tesco.com

“Tesco Mobile Network customers to get the iPhone
Tesco Mobile through its joint venture partnership with O2 is pleased to announce that it will shortly introduce iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in Tesco Phone Shops and online through Tesco Direct in the UK.

For further information and for customers interested in pre-registration please visit http://www.tescomobileiphone.com/.”

Apparently the news on the Interwebz is that this will be the box for the forthcoming iPhone on the Tesco Mobile

Network.

Every Little helps

Just like the earlier post, its been confirmed that the iPhone 3GS will also be coming to Vodafone. This is great news for customers on Orange and Vodafone. They are expected to be released later this year.

Hopefully it will spark a price war, seems there will be 3 competing networks.

If you want an iphone but cant wait for it to come out on Orange, go here and get your Free iPhone on Orange

Potential iPhone owners in the United Kingdom will soon have a choice when it comes to service providers now that Orange has announced plans to sell the iPhone 3G and 3GS in the UK. O2’s exclusive deal with Apple’s iPhone in the UK is coming to an end, after Orange announced today that it would also be selling the handset later this year.

In a brief statement, Orange said it had agreed a deal with the Californian computer company to start selling the iPhone in Britain.

“Orange UK and Apple have reached an agreement to bring iPhone 3G and 3GS to Orange UK customers later this year,” it said. “Orange, which has the largest 3G network covering more people in the UK than any other operator, will sell iPhone in all Orange direct channels including Orange shops, the Orange webshop and Orange telesales channels, as well as selected high street partners.”

This is great news for people wanting an iPhone in the UK, and it may mean that I consider buying one as im currently in a contract with orange and would like to continue with them.

The new iPod Touch rumored to be announced on Wednesday 9th September is said to feature a camera that allows users to take photos and record video, just like on the Latest iPhone 3GS. Some new cases for the rumored iPod Touch 3G have extra holes in that could be for a camera… but designs vary which means the case makers may not know of the final design yet either.

Apple have ordered a massive amount of camera modules recently which suggests this rumor could be true and it could be a wise move for apple to stay ahead of their MP3 competitors such as SONY.
