APPLE RETAIL NOW SELLING [OFF-CONTRACT, STILL LOCKED] IPHONES IN US

9to5Mac is reporting, formed upon mixed sources, which Apple is right away offered unlocked off-contract though still sealed to AT&T iPhones during US Apple Retail Stores, during list price.

List cost equates to $499 for 8GB [for iPhone 3G], $599 for 16GB as well as 32GB is $699 [for iPhone 3GS].

Gizmodo scored a pic above. It’s different either or not this is in reply to a unbarred AT&T-friendly Google Nexus One being expelled (or a Palm Pre upon AT&T… we guess), or only partial of an ongoing, separate sales strategy.

It’s singular right right away to a single iPhone per person, per day, as well as who knows how prolonged it will final so if we wish your strictly unbarred device — go get it! And discuss it us what your internal Apple Retail Store says when we ask for it.
