iPhone 3G unboxed - escapes early via Portugal
Posted on 08 July 2008, at 11:06 am, by Wayne Schulz
Engadget has these early photos of an iPhone 3G that has reportedly been obtained in Portugal by a lucky early purchaser. No word on where or how they obtained the device. Looks a lot like the older version to me — only $15/month more expensive for those in the United States who must subscribe to a 3G plan. More pictures on the next page. Can you feel the excitement?

I saw this over at Engadget. I’m certain that if this really is legit, its likely the LAST time they are going to get an early look at any Apple equipment (if sent from Apple).

Engadget was reporting it via a link from the iPhone Portugal web site. Apparently one of the members there got their hands on an early version.
Not sure where this one slipped out of…
Seems like it’s authentic — though there certainly is a whole industry built up around creating fake photos of products.
