anyone know where i can pickup a 3gs in the GVR off-contract, (like at a store) perferably unlocked and brand new? it's going to be a christmas gift so.. preferably not opened. But understandable if it's opened because it had to get unlocked or whatever.

edit: on the side note, can the iphone 3g/3gs be perm unlocked? or does it get re-locked with every itunes firmware update?

The only permanent unlocked phones is the iphone 2g. Or if you're baller and have a factory unlocked one which is rare.

Thinking about jail-breaking to 3.1.2 with Blackra1n, instead of waiting for the PC version of purplera1n to come out which I doubt will be coming out anytime soon.

Are their any disadvantages to Blackra1n? I remember reading the iphone dev blogs about custom ipsw most likely not being supported by blackra1n if you JB using that program. Is that still true? Will upgrading to blackra1n hurt my chances are future jail-breaking?

so.. jailbreak = unlocked (temp solution, obviously not perm.)

Im looking to buy a 3gs for my girlfriend for christmas, she's with tmobile so its going to need to be unlocked. even if its a temp jailbreak solution.

Just curious, is it a lot easier to move music, pictures and files when a phone is jailbroken? It's a pain in the ass through itunes.

I've used an iphone 3G with iTunes, for about a year so I know a little bit.

edit: the hell is with the activation process of the 3GS? Is it even possible to walk into rogers store, buy the phone off contract without the rogers people unsealing the box? Kinda lame if the present im giving is already unsealed.

Jailbreaking only allows installng 3rd party apps. Unlocking is a seperate thing.

nope, you can tell them not to open it. and that you will do the activation at home. it is super simple and i activated it myself at home.
