Purchasing an iPhone from the US to unlock

We have been inundated with e-mails recently regarding unlocking iPhones (3G, 3GS and 4) purchased from the US. We have to stress that iPhones purchased in the US do NOT cost $99/$199/$299 outright..

Many customers have been under the impression that they can go to the US, purchase an iPhone and come back here to unlock. This is not the reality! ALL iPhones in the US require 2 year contracts when you sign up. The price which are paying for is a subsidised cost for the iPhone on a contract ONLY.

However, we are able to unlock iPhone 3G and 3GS purchased from the US. iPhone 4 will be unlockable by the end of July.
