So the iPhone has finally made it to SK, http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Midmarket/KT-Corp-Brings-iPhone-to-South-Korea-369035/

That's great and all, but I'm wondering if I can use the iPhone I brought with me from the states here?

I've been using it where I can find an open wifi connection and call people back home using the skype app. I just jailbroke it, so I'll be able to call for free, as long as I can get a wifi signal...

Yeah, I saw the lemming-like madness on TV last night. They were distributing them in Olympic Park near Jamsil, I think. Are they fully operational or are the K-telecoms restricting their functionality so they can make the extra wons? (wifi, apps, etc)?

Also , are they just for SK/KT or will they work with LG as well?

So who's going to buy one? I'm considering it... Also, will they even sell them to foreigners on E-2 Visas?
