First indication of iPhone 3G PAYG price

Apple iPhone 3GWhile O2 is yet to reveal the cost of the iPhone 3G on its Pay & Go pre-pay plan, the first prices have been released for the cost of an unsubsidised handset in Europe. Vodafone Italy says it will be selling the iPhone 3G, without subsidy, for €499 for the 8GB model and €569 for the 16GB version. That converts to £395 and £450 respectively and could well be the rough price tag that O2 opts for.

Given that all UK iPhone purchases will now be tied to a contract, a pre-pay iPhone may be the only option for those looking to Jailbreak the handset and use it on another network - assuming a hack is developed soon, of course.

Anyone interested in the Pay & Go option can sign up on the O2 website to be sent details as soon as they're released.
