Ya, if you could find a iphone somehow, buy one maybe on ebay or something, you could go to the store and buy one of those Cingular Pay as You Go phones and activate it, then take the sim card out of that phone and put it in the iphone. should work for you.

I can’t say for sure, ahmed, but there seems to be no reason the iPhone 3G wouldn’t be able to use 3G on prepaid. AT&T offers a number of 3G prepaid phones.

Update: Yes, iPhone 3G does work out-of-the-box with prepaid. Check PhoneNews.com for all the details.

There is another thing you are missing – You also have to pay for that month of service (minimum $70) + $36 activation…. so make that $480 or so…

Actually, there’s one catch you’re missing. Just because you have an iPhone 3G free and clear of a contract, doesn’t mean it will work on prepaid.

For that, you may have to wait for someone to make a jailbreak. It remains to be seen, as iPhone 3G units are still bricked due to an Apple server failure this morning…

But, stay tuned to PhoneNews.com. As soon as we figure out how to make iPhone 3G work on prepaid, we’ll post away.
