While many countries despise how we Americans act, there is no denying that the arts are coveted throughout the world. Our music, and to a lesser extent movies, transcend all others, and old brands like Levi's and Converse Chuck Taylor's go for outrageous black market prices. The iPhone wasn't very functional for the 3G world, so the response was lackluster at best. I agree that as soon as an iPhone is available with 3G you are going to see a huge jump in buyers from other countries.
I am with Hawk and Psylicon about how the US will greet a 3G iPhone. Can we at least get 3G coverage in 80% of the country AT&T? That's crazy that they are already dumping money and assets into LTE when we need their HSPA NOW.
