Now that you’ve rested from your five-hour wait in line for the new iPhone (followed a week later by your three-hour wait for the midnight showing of “The Dark Knight”), you’re wondering what to do with your janky, first-gen iPhone.
Sending it in to FreeiPhoneSwap is a possibility. They brag that by doing so, you get to be the greenest kid in town. We mean that in the environmental and the financial sense. But wait, hold the phone (bad pun)! The Times suggests that FreeiPhoneSwap may be profiting off of your phone by selling those babies to buyers like non-AT&T subscribers.
Hmm. Not a bad idea. We’re not tearing down FreeiPhoneSwap, we’re just suggesting that you maybe able to get rid of the middle man and add a little more heft to your piggy bank.

I sold my old 8GB iPhone to a T-Mobile customer for more than I bought my new 16GB iPhone 3G (with contract)!
Recycling at its finest!
