Can I buy a iphone in Japan and connect it to an Australian network when Iget home? -

How much should I expect to pay in Japan?

dude why bother? Just get it on telstra or optus or voda

Yes! I am not sure, how much you would have to pay, but you can unlock a japanese phone, from japan, with a hypersim. You just place your sim on top, and the phone becomes unlocked! Prices are quite similar, in Japan, depending on the product, but you can get some great deals! Japanese phones are so cool! Mine is from Japan, and has a Panasonic Viera touch screen, that can watch free tv, in japan! I reccommend you to look around, the iphone may not be the best offer! Sayonara! have agood time in Japan!

youll have to get the lock hacked if its being sold for a specific japanese network. like the way the cellular guys did in the US. i personally wud recommend u to wait for launch in australia, cause the bluetooth frequency might vary from country to country. ppl in india gettin iphone from US face similar problem. that means the bluetooth wont work.

Are u talking bout iphone or iphone 3g? if it s iphone that u re talking about, then it is possible.. just unlock it.. as for iphone 3g, it requires instore activation straight away after u buy it.. so i reckon they would get u to sign up for one of the 3G plans in japan :)

Japan iphones are given or sold if you apply in softbank this means getting the service in Japan, but if you dont have an alien registration card they wont give you anything. Why dont you ask directly?

yes but you ll need the paperwork with the serial number and everything saying its legal and you own it

They don t sell it in Japan.

my friend did it?
