I'm looking for an iPhone 3g 8gb for my mom. I'd like to get a factory unlocked one to make her life easy and that way she (well, me really) doesn't have to worry about firmware updates breaking the unlock if it was orig AT&T.
She Will be using on t-mobile with a $6.99 or $9.99 (whatever price I can get it at since I have an older plan) t-zones.
Hoping to spend as close to $300 as possible. I'm watching ebay auctions to see if that can happen. On craigslist, it's too hard to figure out what (if any) are factory unlocked.
I'd like to get one more for my wife and would like to make that a 3GS if possible, but again, I'd like to spend as little as possible. Also, would like to have hers just remain factory unlocked. Those are way high priced - I'd say around $1k. I did see one reseller selling factory unlocked iPhone 3gs for $400 - but you had to buy a minimum of 3 and that would require some coordination w/ other members here, etc
