    It never ceases to amaze me what people want to do - but I have learned that they usually have a valid reason for wanting to do it.
    I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to your question but could you enlighten me as to why you want to do this?

    You had me a bit worried there!

    I'm sure someone like cpjr will answer your question.

    good luck.

    No, not without a lot of modifying anyways. And not because of the actual button piece but the switch behind it is made completely different.....but then again Ive never tried it, so......

    And the cheapest and ONLY place to buy an iphone outside of signing a contract would be ebay. Or some local listing for you.
