When news broke out in the iPhone world on Monday that Apple was going to start selling contract-free iPhone at list price in its stores and on its Websites, many thought that iPhones would be sold unlocked. However, it was not the case; list price was referred to here as the price without subsidization from AT&T.
On further analysis, it was found that while the iPhone 3G 8GB model sells for a list price of $499, the iPhone 3GS 16GB and 32GB models sell for $599 and $699 respectively; and now the iPhones are being sold at list price to customers sans an AT&T contract. The offer however, hasn’t yet reached the online store; therefore you will have to visit your local Apple Store to clinch the deal.
New policy changes for iPhone - Will this propel iphone unlocking?
In the latest internal memo, Apple revealed the details of the new policy change which mentions that customers may now buy ‘one’ iPhone at full price, without an AT&T contract, per day (you can purchase up to five contracted iPhones). Apart from that, customers can purchase up to ten full-price iPhones per lifetime.
This policy of course, doesn’t mean much for the average customer, unless you were contemplating iPhone unlocking. You may not require demonstrating proof of an AT&T contract to get an iPhone from an Apple store; however, you'll still need an AT&T contract if you want it to be anything more than an iPod Touch. Some industry experts have referred to the recent launch of contract-free iphone as the first sign of the arrival of the fourth-generation iPhone.
It is now for you – the consumer to decide if you would like to opt for a contract-free iPhone at full price or an unlocked iPhone. For technical support and service for iphone unlocking or jailbreak iphone you may visit easyiphoneunlocking.com for quick assistance.
