Hi all, new member here
I found out about this forum while searching for info about the iphone 3G in Cyprus.
paliometoxo, the site you mentioned before (hackint0sh) is really great and very informative! Thank you for that and if you have any other good sites in mind about iphones please let me know.
kyprea, why did you get the iphone 3G from technica ? Vodafone (GR) is selling it for 500 Euros, officially unlocked !!
Also yesterday O2 (UK) released the Pay as you Go version of the iphone 3G for £350 GBP (440 Euros) but it's locked on the O2 network and no software unlock exists yet. (Only some cra*** sim adapters that everyone suggests to avoid). The good thing though is that they give you 1 year FREE 3G & WiFi, wherever you are in the UK. (Normally this would cost you £120 GBP extra) So the "real" price of the iphone 3G is £230 GBP.
Since I'm studying in the UK for my university degree I was thinking of getting the iphone 3G from O2 on PAYGO but it really troubles me that I wont be able to use it when I'm in Cyprus or when travelling. So what do you guys think ? Should I get it from Greece for 500 Euros unlocked, without the 1 year free web; or should I just get it from O2 for 440 Euros (60 Euros cheaper) + the 1 year free web and hope that a software unlock will come out soon ?
Thanks,
Michael C.
