Hey everyone,

I saw this link on T3:

http://www.t3.com/news/iphone-5-release-date-set-as-september-5th-in-the-us?=58795

that rumours an iPhone release on the 6th September (I appreciate it is JUST a rumour), it gives rise to a couple of interesting questions for me as I am going to the US in September...

1. Do iPhone's get sold in the Duty free in airport, as the notion of picking up a VAT free iPhone is certainly an enticing one! I mean both US and UK duty-free's

2. Will an unlocked iPhone brought in the US work fine in the UK. I presuming so as the GSM US model should work in the UK as I'm sure it covers the 4 common frequencies but best to check I feel.

3. What is warranty cover like. If I have a problem will Apple UK sort it for me. Also, can I purchase apple care in the UK for a US phone?

4. What is supply like in America. In the UK usually its a bit difficult to get hold of one at first, I'm guessing it's a similar story in the UK!
