Re: iPhone Contract Sign Up

100% pre-activated..has to be now because of the subsidised cost of the handsets - they have to know what contract you are on (and get you setup on that plan) before they know how much to charge you for the phone

Pay as you go is different of course, that is still done through iTunes. It's not really a worry for Apple yet as the 3G iPhones cannot be soft-unlocked anyway, so theres no real incentive for anyone to "buy to unlock" as there was with the original.
