    Gonna buy a second hand iphone

    The 3gs are going for 180-200 euro
    The 3g are down around 140 euro

    Is the 3gs really worth it, is there much of a differance? U can still use apps like sky go on both, right?

    Definitely a 3gs if you want to hold on to it for any length
    iOS 5 doesn't even run on a 3g but will run on 3gs (quite slowly though!). A friend of mine has a 3G and certain apps won't install because the phone is as up to date as possible but some apps have minimum software versions required

    In all honesty if you can stretch to €250 you'll find a few iPhone 4's knocking around and they're much much better than 3gs and will run anything on the app store no problems

    To answer your question, is the 3gs worth it over the 3? Absolutely! 100%

    you will get a good condition factory unlocked 3GS for €150.
    The 3G has had its day, its sluggish and doesn't support multitasking, ios5, etc.
    If happen to pick one up for free its worth installing the whited00r firmware but I wouldnt go out and buy one
