Mac|Life's British sister site, MacFormat has good news for the iPhone loving British public. The iPhone 3G in the UK is a better deal than the United States version.
In the UK, the iPhone 3G will sell for £99. Existing iPhone owners on O2's £45 or £75 per month tariffs can get a new iPhone for free. That's right FREE!
Well, at least we still have cheaper gas.
Check out MacFormat's entire list.
UPDATE: A commenter pointed out that anyone can get a free iPhone from O2, not just current iPhone owners. To AT&T we have this to say, "WTF."

Steve Jobs announced the release of the iPhone 3G today (known colloquially as the iPhone 2.0). The announcement was met with a great deal of wow and a smattering of harumph.
As with most Apple products, the new iPhone will include features that you didn’t know you needed, such as the ability to wipe your data remotely, so that the theft of your iPod won’t necessarily mean the theft of your identity.
However, some features were excluded--features that many Apple watchers were hoping to see. So what’s missing from the iPhone 3G?

When Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone in his January 9, 2007, keynote address, he called it “a widescreen iPod, mobile phone, and Internet communicator.” And it was. Later in the speech, he explained that it ran a version of Mac OS X, designed for “desktop-class applications.” And it did—but the iPhone only used the applications that Apple chose to build into its firmware. Developers could only write apps to run in the
Web browser, or be installed on hacked, or jailbroken, iPhones.

iPhone users should have more than Steve Jobs' keynote address on June 9 to speculate about. It may be too soon to tell, but it looks as if wireless technology may be gearing for a standards war akin to the throw-down between Blu-Ray and HD-DVD.
There's an urgent need for fast, widespread Internet access -- gods know we need our YouTube videos as fast as we can get them. Currently, the iPhone has a data transfer speed of a mere 60 KB/s to 170 KB/s on its EDGE network and a slightly more respectable 150 KB/s to 6000 KB/s through Wi-Fi.
The fourth generation (4G) of wireless tech is expected to serve up data at a scorching 100 Mbit/s to 1 Gbit/s.
