Quicksilver,
There is no unlocked phone even when you buy from Apple direct. Another benefit of unlocking is say when you want a new phone, get it FREE from ATT or TMobile but the fine print is they extend your contract. I don't WANT another two year contract from any one when I am one year or almost two into a contract.
I just bought another iPhone for my wife (who is on TMobile). I could have gone for a new TMobile phone for free but then they would have extended the contract another 2 years (no contract right now). So basically I paid $199 for the 4Gb (plus $100 Steve Jobs credit which is out today). Not a bad deal. Time to unlock and give it as a surprise gift to the CEO.
