Iphone 3Gs are still fetching high prices in parts of the developing world. Maybe there's an opportunity there for someone willing to tackle the importation-related paperwork and process.

Not a bad idea $5!

Ipod Touch and give it to the kids.

I sold my first gen 2G iphone on ebay last week for $145. You can make more selling the 3GS than it costs for an iphone4 right now.

I am not using my iphone 4 until they fix the proximity sensor.

So until that happens I use the 3gs

Damn, I was just going to throw mine away but looking at ebay they are selling between $170-$220.

Might as well sell it instead.

Go into "General" >> "Reset" >> "Erase All Content and Settings"

Then, take your SIM card out, http://www.maclife.com/article/how_t...phone_sim_card. I sold mine without the SIM card included. They're cheap, buyers can buy another one for less than $5 bucks.
