Possible to buy iPhone 4 WITHOUT AT&T?
 
If its possible, I will order one from the US..

But if I try and buy one from Apple.com they tell me I need AT&T....what if I send a friend in California to get one for me..how do I deal with AT&T?

Possible to buy without AT&T?

I think you can buy one in store with the option of using ATT's prepaid plan, but then Jailbreak it and hook it up on T-Mobile.

I've never done it, but the details are readily available online.

Can I buy an iPhone without an AT&T contract?

No. iPhone requires a two-year AT&T wireless service contract.

You can still get them from apple without a contract in the UK, but then you pay UK prices - the 32 gig is 918 USD with no contract.

I do not have the slightest idea why anyone would want any kind of Apple product! People write about what a nefarious fellow Bill Gates is but he doesn't hold a candle to that band of reprobates over at Apple! Did also know that you cannot pay CASH for an iPhone? Credit cards ONLY! Supposedly to minimize large buys of the product for overseas sales.

Yeah, right.

Apple, Mac and all their people and products suck balls!

Poorly.

You can purchase them used on CL and Ebay on the cheap, unlock and use a TMobile SIM.

I don't have any idea why people think their opinion on a phone or operating system is worth sharing.

I've had mine for about a month now. iPhone4, 32gigs

I paid the full price cuz I don't like contracts. $749 +tax... minus my FIDO dollars so I ended up paying $400 and change.

No contract. I can take it to any provider that supports iPhone anywhere in the world.

You can buy them unlocked without a contract.

Apple have stopped selling it unlocked in the states, as I linked to several posts ago.

But god, that's so much cheaper than the $918 I paid!

Yes you can buy them "new " and officially unlocked without contract in both Canada and the UK

It looks like they are 499 - 599 UK pounds from Apple UK
