there's no such thing :D
it would of been a 3GS. its the same price at target, big w and kmart. if you want a cheap one, ask a mate if they are selling theres, or, ebay it. you can get unlocked iPhones off ebay for 289-400 for 3G or 3GS phones. there is a guy that sells them from New Zeland (they work here). other then that, ebay would be your best bet. watch because apparently ebay was doing a buy back system with iPhones so their might be something going on there.
Sorry, the word 'cheap' and 'iPhone', or any other apple products for that matters, just doesn't go with each other.
However if you are looking for a premium priced iPhone that is less expensive (or so Apple claimed) then I suggest you wait for iPhone4S that will be released 14th October! I think most carriers with have them with plans or you can buy it out right it should be cheaper for the 8GB one? Looking around $799 for the 16GB one!Try look for refurbished iPhone, they tend to be cheaper and still look quite good ;)

ok, i just checked and ya, it was the 3GS for $449. is the 3GS still worth buying? what would i be missing out on if i didn't get the most recent one?
No still not worth. Grab an iPhone 4 for round 550-600 bucks on Ebay or Gumtree. Otherwise you can have an old one for 4-500 bucks coz ppl are about to upgrade theirs to iPhone 4s.
i dunno about buying a refurbished iphone? because it's such a personal device? i mean, i have no problem buying a 2nd hand tower or even a screen but a phone? that's more personal than a keyboard.
A refurbished iPhone looks like a brand new one. It doesn't have any content on it. It has no scratches or marks either.
Apple IPhone expensive. Can not be cheap. However what you have found is a good price.
