Buying an iPhone abroad

[sparkymark75]

Anyone know if you can get an iPhone 3GS in Mexico? I'm going there in a couple of weeks and was thinking about it. Would it even work here?

Wouldn't be worthwhile tbh. you'd need to get it without a contract, and that will cost a fortune, then you would likely need to unlock it when you got home (don't even know if you can do this on the GS yet)

So i wouldn't bother.

Cheers. Was thinking about getting one here without a contract so if the costs comparable to here then it may be worth it. You can reclaim the 15% tax on leaving Mexico so it could work out cheaper if you were able to buy one without a contract.
