I heard there was a massive price drop to them shortly after they came out. You might want to try buying them new from your cell phone provider. If all else fells try looking for a new/used one off ebay that maybe unlocked. If you don't feel like renewing your contract with your provider or already have so can't then I suggest you go with Ebay they have them selling for $530 unlocked, and $430 locked.

I don't know much about phones either bu the title is "Christmas" and I'll tell you what pisses me off about this holiday..

Here in the Canadian sector, people want us to say "Happy Festive season" or "Happy Holiday" instead of Christmas because of all the people who don't believe in Christmas. I am a Christian and they are stepping on my rights by thinking I will say anything other than Christmas. Our two countries are based on a christian society..

I would neve think of calling Ramadan anything else so why would we fold up our beliefs so easily..

Other than the drive towards the total want attitude towards Christmas I enjoy the season..

I say make all the non-believers work all the Christmas holidays so we can relax.

iPhones area going to be 399 ... unless you buy a refurb when they are available.... Refurb iPhone I have not seen what the price of a refurb is, but if I had to guess I would thing 329 to 349...

Good luck...

an "unlocked phone" is a cell phone that has had its software altered to work on other carries networks as well as work with any sim card you put in it. theres a million ways to do it. i dont have specifics but it can save you alot of cash.
