Apple iPhone 3G White (16 GB) Smartphone Start Price AUD 999.00 Current Price AUD 999.00 Time Left - Bid Count 0 Buy It Now Price - Reserve Price - Start Time Sunday, November 16, 2008 End Time Sunday, November 23, 2008 Location Melbourne, Victoria See more about 'Apple iPhone 3G White (16 GB) Smartphone' Description GENUINE AUSTRALIAN 16GB iPhone ( WHITE ) NOW AVAILABLE.  LEGALLY UNLOCKED AND READY TO USE ON ANY AUSTRALIAN NETWORK BRAND NEW - 12 MONTH WARRANTY - BE QUICK WON'T LAST LONG. 12 MONTH WARRANTY Officially Unlocked by Apple (the IMEI number has been registered as being "unlocked" in the Apple database), this means you can enjoy all firmware updates in the future.Note that if your phone is not unlocked officially (in other words it was unlocked with a software hack or a Turbo SIM), your phone will be locked again if you update your firmware and it may not be possible to re-unlock it - so do not risk buying these phones.It is already unlocked today - be careful because many other eBay sellers claim their iPhones to be "unlockable with a software which will be released soon" but honestly the software hack won't be available for a while to come (most likely several months) so your phone is pretty much useless (for your information the iPhone purchased from AT&T in USA cannot be officially unlocked - our stock comes from Australia and Apple allows official unlocking here).Some other sellers sell the iPhone3G  with a Turbo SIM or its variant (such as Universal SIM, Yes SIM, Gevey SIM, and many others), however it doesn't work very well. For a start, it only works with a few carriers so it's a hit and miss unless you already know that your carrier works with it. Many of the Turbo SIM's only work for a couple of hours before they need to be replaced, and for those which last a long time, almost certainly you will still have occasional loss of signal. In addition, the 3G transfer speed will be much slower than if you do not use a Turbo SIM and your battery will run out faster. It's barely worth spending the money for your expensive iPhone if you can't use it to its full potential. Also be careful because there are Turbo SIM's which are soldered inside the phone so you cannot see it, if it's too cheap then it almost certainly has Turbo SIM. Once again, you can upgrade it to the Latest Firmware (2.1 currently) because it's been officially unlocked. It does not suffer from problems with a Turbo SIM. Place a Bid!
