US iPhone 3G gets unboxed and handled

by Joshua Topolsky, posted Jul 8th 2008 at 6:26PM

Continuing this day of iPhone 3G impropriety, the Boy Genius has somehow secured himself a brand-spanking-new iPhone 3G, and has unboxed it for all the world to see. First off, our condolences to the AT&T or Apple employee who will probably lose their job over this one, and then a tip of the hat to BGR for pulling off such a daring stunt. The pictures, however, should be less exciting (since we've been seeing a lot of these today) -- still, nice to know what you're about to get into! We've included a few more shots after the break.

been trying and trying to cost justify this phone.. it's very difficult to do on a tight budget, especally with my wife under contract on her phone.

Think about it this way: an iPod Touch would cost the same anyway. It just depends on whether you need one or not.

its tempting to get one. i love the black and white bodies and also the GPS feature. I'd also love to up my 4gig iphone to a 16 gig, but for $10 more a month and take away my text?! no way i will switch until they released a reasonably priced, contract free unit.
