Can anyone tell me what the difference is between JB and unlocking an iphone? Does an iphone need to be JB'd before it is unlocked? Can it just be unlocked and not JB'd?

Thanks!
Dan

Do a "completed auctions" search on eBay. It will show you what recent ones have sold for. That is your best guide.

Jailbreak gives you complete control of the file system.

Unlock means it's no longer locked to your carrier and can be used on other GSM carrier networks.

Personally I'd say you'd only get $100-$150 for a 8GB 3G since people will be able to get an 8GB 3GS for $99, with a contract of course.
