How much are you willing to pay for a never-locked iPhone 3G capable of software updates with a full Apple warranty?

Buy.com believes you’d pay $1099.
For only $400-500 more than AT&T’s current selling price for an Apple iPhone 3G without a contract (but still locked to AT&T), you can purchase a never-locked iPhone 3G with full Apple warranty to use on any gsm carrier.
A no-contract Apple iPhone 3G locked to AT&T retails at $599 for an 8GB and $699 for a 16GB. Which, as discussed in a former post, is ridiculously overpriced. iPhone 3G Comparison Shop
The never-locked iPhone 3G selling price is comparable to the price of a new unibody Macbook. Considering the new iPhone is slated for a June release and other carriers are bound to pick up the iPhone (so that Apple will have a chance to actually compete with Blackberry), I would recommend waiting it out.
If you’re going to sell a 2nd generation iPhone for a premium when the 3rd generation iPhone is slated for an upcoming release then “that’s a dealbreaker, ladies.”
