So the Mini 3G has just had its first weekend on sale in the UK and Austria. Its awesome capability and the price is causing a few double takes. Here’s a picture of it in 3 stores.

It has injected a big splash of much-needed colour onto the high street as we approach the grim wintery time of the year.

3 Store staff have been inviting customers to check out the Mini’s integrated social address book, which automatically pulls in Facebook and Skype contacts, and even updates the contacts book with your friends’ new Facebook pictures. More picture and videos to come, so stay tuned.

If you don’t fancy braving the high street, you can snap one up online from 3’s online store.
