iPhone UK

Although the iPhone 3G is available in Russia, it can only be purchased on the black market where it has been very popular despite a cost of up to $1000 for the handset and $100 for unlocking it. However buyers will have to pay much less than black market rates when the iPhone 3G will be officially available later this year through Russian carrier’s MegaFon and Vimpelcom, who have reached an agreement with Apple to sell the iPhone 3G. Further details’ including information on prices have yet to be released, but analysts are also expecting Mobile Telesystems, Russia’s largest mobile operator to be allowed to sell the iPhone 3G.
