 Send to email | Unlocked iPhone Shopping Guide: World Tour Edition (AAPL) in AAPL |  By Silicon

 Why can't Apple (AAPL) keep enough iPhones in stock in its U.S. stores? One theory: Because so many are being bought to be "unlocked" and resold overseas.
We've seen plenty of anecdotal reports of tourists leaving the U.S. full of iPhones (or trying to). What happens after that? In some cases, apparently, they hit Craigslist, or their international equivalents. What we do know: If you're willing to pay a premium, you can buy an iPhone anywhere in the world.
Some of the prices below represent real auction bids; others are simply ask prices. For comparison: In the U.S., an 8-gigabyte iPhone retails for $399 before taxes; a 16-gig unit goes for $499.
This is an unscientific report: We expect prices to fluctuate, perhaps greatly, online and offline. And we don't necessarily recommend you try buying from any of these sources without doing local research. Know a better place to find iPhones abroad? Let us know in the comments or via our anonymous tip form.

| Apple makes iPhone 3G available unlocked in HK |  It looks like Apple has decided to sell the iPhone 3G to folks in Hong Kong without having it locked down to any particular carrier. This could be a straight backlash to the rumors that China Mobile won’t carry the iPhone unless 3G and Wi-Fi are disabled (we know, right?). Anyway, the iPhone 3G will [...] [..] Read complete article | | Published 25-Sep-2008 by Marc Flores in AppleCarriers - InternationalGSMHSDPANews3GChinaChineseHKHong KongiPhoneMac
