iPhone 3G SOLD with the HELP of Twitter

By Robert Hawkes

As you probally know I recently upgraded to the iPhone 3GS. And I was in two minds if I was going to sell my iPhone 3G or not. I played around with the idea spoke to a few people even got decent offers. But something was stopping me. My “sickness” my inability to let go of any thing Apple.

I sold my black MacBook last year to help purchase the Alu MacBook so I found that easy enough to part with but this time round I didn’t really need to sell the iPhone 3G to buy the iPhone 3GS. What made matter worse a good contact on Twitter helped me Jailbreak the 3G and I was having some really good fun with it messing with the Free Apps such as the GPS Sat Nav which was very cool & may I say it again FREE. To cut a long story short I started to realise that I was been very childish hanging onto the 3G when was really never going to use it and It was time to put the it up for Sale for real this time round.

After a previous sale feel through I was going to be serious about selling this time. So in comes Twiiter I have about 500 or so Irish Followers so I felt if anyone could help they would and boy did they. In a matter of hours of putting the Tweet out and a few Re-Tweets from my Followers I found a really decent guy up the country to Buy the iPhone. PayPal money transfered and phone been dropped to the couriers tomorrow and will be at it’s new home by Tuesday. Moral of the Story …. If you use Twitter right it will help you do pretty much anything :-)

    I was kinda hoping I could trade in the old iPhone 3G for a new 3Gs with O2. You’re saying that its just a new purchase and they leave you with the old one? Is it easy to transfer data to the new one etc? Also, can the old one be jailbroken and used on vodafone pay as you go?

    Hey Leon,there is talk that they will be doing a trade in option but u are better off trying to sell it yourself. Transfering Data is easy… everything you have on the phone is already on your PC/Mac & iTunes so no worries.

    The 3G can be unlocked & Jailbroken easliy as well so its all gooooooooooooood.

    Ps where’s my sexy header you promised me :-)

    So does jailbroken mean it can be used on pay as you go on any carrier?

    I seen you had a banner already, do you want a different one?

      No unlocked means u can use it on any network.. you have to jailBreak before you can download the software to unlock. So once unlocked you can use whatever network u want. If you have a spare 15mins would love to see what you could do on a banner for me
