Many of you are probably waiting for iPhone OS 3.0 or the new iPhone to roll out, but those looking to purchase their first iPhone might be interested to know that Buy.com is now selling unlocked iPhone 3G units.

This isn’t just a jailbroken iPhone, rather a complete Apple-warrantied, unlocked iPhone 3G. They’re selling the 16GB iPhone 3G for $799.99, which is quite a reasonable amount. This is also the first time that a major retailer in the US has offered up an unlocked iPhone 3G as part of their line-up. So, if you’re one of those individuals who has been holding out on getting an iPhone 3G because you’ve got an aversion to AT&T and don’t necessarily trust the whole jailbreaking procedure, then this offer from Buy.com might just be the answer to your prayers.

Taking all things into consideration, we’d still put off making any hasty purchases at the moment until the new iPhone is announced in June. Even if you don’t intend to buy the new iPhone, waiting for it to be announced and made available will help you land a better deal as far as the current iPhone 3G is concerned as prices will surely go down once the new iPhone is unveiled.
