It's pretty funny going over on RFD and seeing everybody raving about the 3G iPhone when we've been using the 1st gen one for months. :mamoru:

anyone planning to upgrade to 2.0 anytime soon?

Tim Budong 07-12-2008 10:12 AM

Hyde 07-12-2008 10:53 AM

Tim Budong 07-12-2008 10:56 AM

cspec 07-12-2008 11:39 AM

FALLEN87 07-12-2008 01:17 PM

so is it possible to update a unlocked/jailbroked V1 Iphone to 2.0?

cspec 07-12-2008 01:45 PM

^ not yet... soon

Levitron 07-12-2008 02:23 PM

DevTeam reports the pwnage tool will be released next week to unlock 2.0 firmware.

I'm pretty excited :D

Is the HK iPhone unlocked?

GF is looking to get one but doesn't want to be locked into a contract.

stuff99 07-12-2008 04:14 PM

Now the biggest hurdle...do they require contracts?

cspec 07-12-2008 05:04 PM

^ yes, my friend tried to get one on the day it released

but he heard that it may change after awhile, just not sure when.

Tim Budong 07-12-2008 06:23 PM

well..in hk
u are to pay upfront to prevent ppl form cancelling the contract
im sure its doable..u are paying maybe close to 1000-2000HKD to get out of it(monthly costs-$500hkd.and possible termination fee)
and there prob will be some sorta time period like here 3months b4 u can officially cancel
anyone confirm?

what is confirmed is u do pay upfront for a unit...

Let us know if you can get them without a contract and how much it is

Thanks Hyde

Hyde 07-13-2008 12:51 AM

the official price should be $4680 for 8GB, but they aren't selling without a contract to regular users

i can get it w/o contract, but i have to upgrade my plan to the $498 unlimited data plan.

Ronin 07-13-2008 01:20 AM

If you buy one in some European countries, they're unlocked. By law in most European countries, phones can't be locked to any one provider. Then you just have to get out of the contract.
