I'm looking to buy an iPhone 4s. However, I don't want it for the "phone" part, at least not yet. (I already have a phone, I just want to buy an iPhone NOW and then "activate" it when my phone runs out)

Where is a good place to buy an "un-activated" iPhone 4s?

If you still don't get what I'm looking for, let me put it this way.

I want an iPhone 4s, that cannot talk or text. I'll buy that later when I save up some MORE money. Is it even possible to just buy one without activating the 2 year contract and paying monthly?

Is the price about the same?

Like, would an "unlocked" one be less? Doubt it though...

i was gunna say, getting one un-locked off ebay is going to run you betwen 500-900.

i have an old 32g 3gs that i gotta fix (headphone port) just for my music.. but since the headphone port is messed up, i got a shattered 8g ipod touch.

i love the 4..

why dont you just buy the 4 instead of 4s...
