Iphone 3g without a contract?

[v0locity]

Is it true that you can get a iphone 3g without a contract now by using a gift card? I read at several difference places that you can and some sources say they are not sure and to not get your hopes up. I don't want to post the source because they are from other apple communities too.

Is anyone able to confirm this?

Just fork out full price and you can have anything you want.
