It has been revealed the prices that Vodafone in Italy will sell the iPhone 3G for without a new agreement. According to the Vodafone Italy iPhone 3G web site, the device will sell for €499/€569 ($773/$881) for the 8GB/16GB models. This is quite a price for sure, but according to some sources this is not that bad of a price in the Italian smart phone market.

All in one iPhone 3G

Now this does not mean that is the price it will sell for unsubsidized in other countries, but it is a clear indication the iPhone 3G will cost a lot more than the original. The bottom line appears to be, Apple wants you to sign that dotted line. The new tighter regulations on sales of the device is attributed to Apple trying to keep iPhone unlocking to a minimum.
