Vodafone Australia have just announced that the iPhone 3G will be available for $0 on their $69 iPhone cap on a 24-month contract.

Edward Goff, General Manager of Consumer Markets at Vodafone Australia said:

“Vodafone is thrilled to be offering iPhone 3G for $0 on the $69 iPhone plan, the first time this has ever been offered in Australia,”

Will other carriers follow? Is this a sign that a new iPhone is coming? It’s time to play the waiting game.
