MacNN is reporting that Hong Kong Apple Stores are selling unlocked iPhones for $692 for the 8GB and $794 for the 16GB. This directly contradicts reports that mainland China will get a gimped up iPhone later this month but Hong Kong has always been an odd place.

Notably, iPhones in the region can be “activated with any wireless carrier,” according to Apple, and require only that a carrier’s SIM card be installed prior to sync with iTunes 8.
