First auctions here in Germany are already running out. As expected (read here): prices are strongly tending to 1,000€. We’re tracking this auction to see the final price – please don’t place bids. This is for entertainment and for fun only. Currently the price is at 760€ with 8hrs remaining. You could buy two 3G iPhones in Italy for that price.
Anyhow: we recommend to not buy any iPhone 3G, right now. As of yesterday (read here) the iPhone Dev Team performed to unlock the new firmware, but it is not known if this applies to the 3G version of the iPhone aswell, because it is very likely to have a new bootloader, rather than bootloader 4.6. Moreover the firmware 2.0 hack is still under heavy testing and not yet released to the public. Therefore expect scam whereever you find activated and unlocked 3G iPhones…
