camera-free iphones?! haha. Jesus, I'd admit if I was in the military or gov and was required to have a camera free phone, this would be my dream phone, i'd sacrifice the feature so I could at least enjoy the other features the iphone offers.
Got a tip for us?

So you pay more for a phone that has something removed that has no factory warranty, but you have the option of paying even more to buy a third party warranty. Sign me up
Is this even legal for carriers to do? Offering a modified product for sale without an included warranty that is. I know they can legally remove the cameras.
It's like if you bought an AMG Mercedes. You don't have a Mercedes warranty, you have an AMG warranty as Mercedes and AMG are two different companies. But pretend AMG didn't include a warranty and you had the "option" of buying one from "Joe's Discounts-R-Us Warranties". Just seems real shady.
AMG and Mercedes are not separate companies. AMG has been owned by Mercedes since 1999 and has since 2005 been a wholly owned subsidiary.
Hi guys,
Im from Singapore so let me clear up some stuff. Believe me, there is demand for a camera-less iphone here. All male citizens have to enlist in the military at from age 18 to 20, so theres a market for camera-less phones.
When we complete our military service at age 20, we are still held in the reserves and have to go back for 2 weeks training once a year or every two years till age 40. Obviously when we go back for training we cant use a camera phone. So you can imagine theres this huge market of males in Singapore who may want something like this.
Also, the iphone is very popular here. I vaguely recall reading somewhere that Singapore is either number 1 or 2 in the world in terms of percentage of iphone users. Im not an iphone user myself, but only because my company gave me a blackberry and I dont want two phones.
