    He's referring to the 3G iPhone I believe, and that's incorrect, because it didn't come out in Australia yet. Also, he probably had sad faces :)() because he doesn't live in Australia and they "got it first" even though they didn't.

    Does rogers have a 3G network? Also does anyone know a relative pricing of the plan. And is anyone gonna use the appstore, or wait for installer+apps to come?

    Yes, Rogers has a 3G network. There is no word yet as to prices, with Rogers simply saying to stay "tuned in." I'm going to definitely be using the App Store, and I don't think I will return to jailbreak on Firmware 2.0. I called my local Rogers Store once again to confirm whether or not they know the plans, and they have said they still do not know the plans [or they aren't allowed to say]

    Yep, T-Mobile will also be carrying the 3G iPhone in Germany and other countries as well.

    You have to wait until July 11th, or you will have to wait to purchase it after July 11th?

    Hi there. Just curious, could you direct me to where you got your source on the pricing for the Japan iPhone or did you just convert the currency?

    The reason that I am asking is that I saw somewhere that they were going to offer the 8gb for just around 600bucks(converted). This I think is ridiculous.
    While the information that I have is just a rumor. It is still quite absurd. However, it sounds oh so much like softbank.

    SoftBank hasn't mentioned any prices as far as the 3G iPhone goes. Using Google Conversion, I converted the price of the 3G iPhone in US dollars to Japanese dollars.
