Local Macintosh forum PhilMUG has reported that a lady from the Philippines had seen iPhone 3G units being sold at the department store. Of course, these aren’t legit iPhone 3G’s as the rumor is that the units are still going to arrive on local shores in September earliest. These phones were bought from Hong Kong and shipped here (as an aside, Hong Kong airport was recently voted world’s best!)
Saw an iPhone 3G for sale already in Megamall. They had both 8gb and 16gb. They are selling their white 16GB at around 69,500 ($1,544) and their 8GB at 61,500 ($1,366). According to them, the phones came from Hong Kong and the reason it was priced so high is because they bought the plan in Hong Kong. After inspecting the unit for minutes, one lady went to the store bought the white 16gb iPhone. [PhilMUG]
Above is a photo of the July 11 iPhone 3G launch in Hong Kong - where it apparently costs $1,544.00 because the lady bought the ENTIRE LOCKED PLAN and phone. Que stupido!
So there you have it. Some people (with all the money) just can’t wait.
