I guess I’ll just buy it here in states..
$650 is the cheapest price of iphone3g here
you can find sellers in craigslist ^^

old iphone versions are like $200-$350
if ever you’re lucky you can find a like-new 1st gen iphone and buy it in a very cheap price

hmm..im still wondering if iphone 3g is worth buying for..

if aabot ang price ng iphone 3g above 30k pesos, lalangawin yan from the fact na ang hirap na ng buhay ngayon. only those affluent or iphone addicts can/will afford to spend such price. meaning, maliit lang ang kikitain ng globe kapag mahal kasi parehas lang naman kung prepaid at postpaid. mahirap ding mag postpaid kasi ang dami mga papeles na kelangan ipakita to prove urself na kaya mo magbayad ng ganun bills.

globe has to think wise

if it’s around 20k to 25k, it’s a box office hit!

@ Yuga

with regards to that, I’m not really sure. But what i know is that if you end your contract after 30 days, you pay the termination fee and you own the phone as well…. that’s why some sites(like engadget and gizmodo) are telling that AT&T are planning on penalizing people that will end their contract.

[...] Omnia are more affordable and have even better features than the 3G iPhone. Here’s what Yuga had to say on his blog on the topic. It’s common knowledge that the advertised $199 for the [...]

@Lindt, yup I considered that idea but it only makes sense if the pre-terminated account from AT&T allows you to keep the iPhone. On the contrary, AT&T gets you $175 and the iPhone back. So the perceived value of $199 + $175 would not apply.

@ Yuga and FM Arbiter,

I’m not saying Globe will do the same with AT&T with regards to pre termination. What I’m saying is, you can conclude the “true” value of the phone to be that way, since AT&T is willing to give you the unit for $199 + $175 for 8GB and $299 + $175 for the 16GB Iphone. So basically, thats the value of the iphone.

@Lindt Dale

Yuga is rigth, if you try to terminate your contract with Globe you need to pay the unused month contract! Cheap i-Phone 3G no more!

Hehehe

if you preterminate within 30 days with AT&T you have to return the IPhone…

@Lindt, yup, that could be one way around it but as far as I know Globe postpaid subscribers don’t have “early termination fees” — if you pre-terminate, you still pay for the rest of the unused months.
