Now you can buy Unlocked apple 3G iphone from Wireless Imports
Wireless Imports, a wireless retail Web site that specializes in selling unlocked phones, is charging up to a whopping $1,649 for the 3G iPhone.
unlocked phones also are usually unsubsidized phones. That means no discount on the price, you have to pay the full retail amount. But $1,649 for a black 16-GB 3G iPhone? That's almost as much as the MacBook Air. It's certainly more than any other phone on the market. The 8-GB model costs $1,500.
Why does it cost so much? Wireless Import states, "This iPhone comes from a country that states it is illegal for anyone to sell a locked phone. Therefore, Apple is required in these countries to sell iPhone's without a software lock. Because of this law, Apple has also raised the price in the home countries where they come from."
