IPhone Advice, Please!

iphone indeed an iphone. No compare with anyphone that can beat its features and designe so to bring anyhow, there are people expert in unlocking everything whatever apple try to play with their security disturbing locking system. Just watch in YouTube, type" iphone unlock". Same in Qatar, people are taking into challenge to use the phone by hook and cruck to battle with itune & apple., Otherwise u can wait till vodaphone give birth to iphone babies in qatar untill then u use blackberry the next wonderfull phone in the world that make u almost happy 80%. Anyway good luck.

I would suggest to buy it from here in Qatar but it's rather expensive.. Got mine at QRS 2500. You can also buy it from the US and have it jailbroken here.. softwares (for unlocking and jailbreaking) are also available on the net, specifically on eBay. The problem is that 3G iPhones doesn't have an unlocking software yet in the market.. only for 2Gs... just check first before purchasing or you'll end up with a phone that doesn't support the network. Have you considered buying a Nokia 5800 instead of an iPhone? :P

I think it would be better to the buy the iPhone here. You get a warranty although its a bit expensive here. And about the unlocking bit, fear not cuz it's a 2-minute thing.

You will most probably be able to get the phone at a subsidized rate if you get it on contract with Vodafone here when it launches, for now it's just the question of wait, whether you would want to buy it now or you can wait for a few months.

you can not enjoy some of the features that is offered loacally if you buy US unit. and you may spend more of unlocking. local unit though more expensive but with warranty and guaranteed you will enjoy all features.

I got mine from UK and unlocked it here, had a look in the US as well, but couldn't find one with no contract, but it is definately cheaper than buying in Doha
