As such I have an iPhone 3G which is not activated. Attempts to sync with iTunes yesterday resulted only in network timeouts. I have been told to expect activation some time today.

I am awaiting a statement from both O2 and Apple on this situation and an explanation of why everything went so horribly wrong.
