"There would be penalties for users who do not activate the iPhone in the first 30 days, AT&T said, in a move aimed at reducing the number of customers who buy an iPhone and tweak it so that they can use it on another network.

Doesn't this reveal that you will indeed be able to purchase a 3G iPhone and leave the store without it being activated?
For how else would you be able to have a 3G iPhone in your possession for 30 days, un-activated??

@gokieks:
Couldn't agree MORE!
I just recently was looking for an apartment here in nYc (via Craigslist, of course) and sent out dozens of emails to various people.
Took me AGES clearing out the DOZENS UPON DOZENS of "hous-123456789@craigslist.org" addresses that I emailed in my search, because for some asinine reason the Brainiacs at Google ASS-U-ME you want to make permanent acquaintance with everyone you happen to email, even once.
Add that to the fact that I discovered while clearing out the dozens of hous-123456789@craigslist.org's that got unceremoniously added to my contacts list, against my choosing mind you, that Google in its infinite wisdom thinks that I should only be allowed to delete 20 contacts at one time.
Thanks DAD!

This is a very welcome development.
But I'm a little in the dark about how this is actually going to be implemented.
For example, I have a unlocked 3G Razr V3xx from Hong Kong I bought off eBay.

@mildretard:
It is indeed off topic, but I'll simply say this, and it will be the last word by me re: 9/11 in this comment thread out of respect for Giz: the more you seriously, dispassionately study the highly improbable events of that day, you can come to no other logical conclusion.
A good primer on the RIDICULOUS "Conspiricy" theory that is the "Official" version of 9/11 is "The New Pearl Harbor" by David Ray Griffin.

Yes, it would have been a slam dunk for Apple to win.
Actually, it would have been more like Kobe Bryant playing my 6 year old niece in One on One.
Total destruction.

Did not realize that.
I guess that's why my unlocked 3G Razr V3xx from Asia still displays a 2.5G icon today.
Well, that sucks moose balls.
