Apple unlocks the iPhone.......just not here

Is it just me, or is America being left behind. We've been passed, and are falling back further. Apple finally delivers an unlocked iPhone, but in Hong Kong. The phone can be purchased and activated using any carrier. This used to be the place were everything happened. If a company had something big to announce, something special to introduce to the market, it was done in the ole' U.S. of A. Then Japan took over. Now it's China. I know, don't playa hate. It's just seems to me that we're not the cool kids anymore. It's kind of a bummer. I hear you, though. Dude, it's just a phone, you say. Is it,...really? CNET

Apple has made an unlocked version of the iPhone 3G available in Hong Kong. Unlocked iPhones are rampant worldwide, but that isn't something that Apple has sanctioned. Freedom doesn't come cheap. The 8GB version is available for about $695 (5,400 Hong Kong dollars), while the 16GB iPhone costs about $798 (6,200 HK dollars), according to Apple's site.
