Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) has started selling the unlocked iPhone 3G in Hong Kong via its local online store. The 8GB version is available for HK$5,500 (about $694), while the 16 gigs iPhone costs HK$6,200 (about $797).
The official wording, explaining the unlocked “situation” goes like this:
iPhone 3G purchased at the Apple Online Store can be activated with any wireless carrier. Simply insert the SIM from your current phone into iPhone 3G and connect to iTunes 8 to complete activation.
Alternatively you could buy the iPhone on eBay, jailbrake it and use it happily ever after.

Isnt there a difference between Jailbreak and Unlock or is the iphone 3g software unlockable by third-parties now?
