Notes > Apple to launch own networkfor iPhone?

I have an o2 contract so news that they had won the iphone contract was good for me, especially as they are currently making me lots of nice offers to renew my contract with them for next year.

So was a bit surprised when phoning them up the other day and asking when i could upgrade the crackberry for an iphone to be told by the o2 nerk that Apple are setting up their own network? Are they doing a Virgin mobile, are they using o2's network to put it on? Either way o2 were implying it means a new contract, which doesn't seem to tally with all the fuss the other day about them winning the contract etc?

A search on google doesn't reveal much other than the news stories in July saying they'd won it. Anyhow I reckon wait and see is best option. Apple's early adopters rarely get rewarded if I remember my early iPod fun and games, 2 min of battery life and it self destructs on day 366.
