    Hi,

    I am in the process of purchasing a 32gb 3GS , I am getting a factory unlocked one from Belgium .

    When i check out the Belgian apple store ( www.apple.be ) there never seems to be any available yet all other countries have them available ( .it .au ) etc etc

    The frustrating thing is i have a address in Belgium to get them shipped to but there never seems to be any available on line from the Apple Belgium store .

    I have tried the official Belgian carried for Iphone (iphone3g.mobistar.be/en/iphone3g.cfm) but they also dont have any on line for sale.

    Anyone have any input , do apple not sell on line in Belgium or is this just the usual stock issue but ...Italy , Australia , New Zealand have planty ?

    pretty sure apple don't sell them online in Belgium, just as they dont sell them online here in Ireland.

    Cojomo,

    Aint they all sim free in Belgium ? , if so then surley it should be the same as Apple.it .

    If it is not the case and apple want you do do all business with the network service provider (Mobistar) then why aint they ever got any 3GS for sale on line ?:confused:

    If apple.be and Mobistar.be dont sell 3GS then where on this earth can you buy a 3GS in Belgium from a legit source on line ?

    M.

    (p.s)If i do source and get a couple shipped will i keep u in mind or are u sorted ?

    I imagine they do launches in blocks to suit marketing, manual publishing, etc.

    They deliberately hype it also.

    I think ur right but it is getting a bit ridiculous at this stage to get your hands on one .
    I seen a post about apple now agreeing to sell major stocks into China , maybe that's were all the 3GS are going ? , ah well i have no friends over there .
