Can the new iPhone 3G from the US for $199 (QR725) be used directly in Qatar with a Qtel sim?

or will it have to be cracked cause it only works on the AT&T service provider. Can’t we buy an i-phone wo a service provider bundle. I can't wait till it is released in Qatar by Vodaphone or Qtel.

Just wait for the official release of the Apple iPhone 3G here in Doha. Qatar is one of the lucky countries to be distributed by Apple the next generation iPhone, but only after July 11, 2008 when the major countries in the world can avail of it already. It is rumored to be introduced by Vodafone locally.

Anyhow, I believe the answer is yes. Patience is a virtue, my friend.

You'll need to unlock / jailbreak it just like the current iPhone. Of course, that all depends on if the new software and hardware is crackable.
