Yes, but only in Hong Kong. For HK$6,200, you can buy a 16G unlocked 3G iPhone without having to sign up with 3 Hong Kong, the official service provider. At this price, the iPhone isn't inexpensive; it might actually be cheaper with a 2-year contract with 3 HK. But for those who are already locked into another provider, now they have the option to buy the iPhone outright, without needing to go through unauthorized channels, and get support directly from Apple. Choice is always good.
