I've never had to buy an unlocked phone before, so I've never paid attention. But now my friend from Turkey wants to buy an unlocked iPhone 5. I think I remember Apple selling unlocked iPhones in the past, maybe with the 4S release? Anyone know how to get an official, unlocked iPhone 5 from Apple? And when they will be available?
 
itll be a few weeks maybe a month before you can get them in the US. Canada is able to preorder them currently.

If your iPhone 5 is under contract and you do not meet AT&T requirements, It can still be done with Unlock Streak activations for iTunes, Which basically turns iTunes into iPhone unlock software.::D
