My advice, if you can't wait until September-November for the iphone3g to be release in Phil..and you really want to have the iphone 3g without obligations.. Ask your friends to buy it for you in craigslist ^^ There's a lot of people there who bought 2-3iphone 3gs so they can sell the extras for profit.. @TOPIC yes Im planning to buy one this week at first I was hesitant, but my mom told me to buy it so there won't be regrets..cause she knows I was planning to buy the phone ever since Steve released it on media @bozz

The pricing for the unit alone was a good move on Apple's part since most basic smart phones cost the same. If we convert the 199USD to pesos that would be about 9K (1USD = 45PHP)? I might get one if the underground iPhones will only cost that much hehehe... or i might ask some to buy one for me from the US..

I dont like i have to click for the keypads to appear on the screen. Well, if somebody gives me, then that would be a different story. :P I like the traditional cellphone where the keypads is already in place.
