Buy iPhone4 from France?

[Kayan]

Is it possible to just go to France's Applestore online and purchase their factory unlocked iPhone4 and just have it shipped over here and then activate it? Is int'l shipping allowed?

 

[junskeri]

No. International shippings aren't allowed for iPhones.

 

[Applejuiced]

Nope.
Only if u go to France.

Canada is getting the iPhone unlocked soon. Alot closer (if you are in US) You would need a passport, however)

You could have it shipped to someone you know from the appropriate online Apple Store and have them ship it to you right? For example, to a friend in Canada after placing your order online at Apple Store Canada website.

Yes it will have to be shipped by a 3rd party not straight from apple in Canada to the US.

Yeah get it from Canada. I'm sure you have a friend from there. If not, join a hockey forum.

Isn't that the truth, hah. Fortunately, I lived in Canada for a few years so I already have some friends without the desperate need of joining a hockey forum. Is the Canadian iPhone currently unlocked or is it just expected to come in the near future?

Yeah that is what I meant. Thanks for the confirmation, I appreciate it.

I believe that the ones that you would order from Apple Store Canada website will be unlocked on July 30 when they become available.
