iPhone Sheep

In Canada, Apple is now selling a no-contract / unlocked 8GB model of the iPhone 3GS for $549 (Canadian dollars) through its online store and in retail Apple stores.

Unlike the iPhone 4 that was launched earlier today, with new orders of thereof due to be shipped only in three weeks, Apple promises to ship the iPhone 3GS units within 24 hours (with free shipping).

Curiously enough, only the 8GB model of the iPhone 3GS is available through Apple’s online store. Where did the 16GB / 32GB iPhone 3GS units disappear?

Additionally, all major Canadian wireless carriers now offer the 8GB iPhone 3GS for $99 with a three-year contract.

But the 16GB and 32GB iPhone 3GS models also seem to be missing from Fido’s site and Rogers’ site.

Bell and Telus also don’t have new 16/32GB iPhone 3GS units on sale. Although they do offer “refreshed” (= refurbished) iPhone 3GS units at some exceptionally low prices – $49/$99 for an iPhone 3GS 16/32GB respectively (with a three year contract).

These are no doubt some very competitive prices that should eat into the lower-piced Android smartphones market share.

But, once again… where did all the new iPhone 3GS 16/32GB units disappear out of sudden?
