If you're *IN* HK, there's a cellphone mall in Mong Kok. Take the MTR to Mong Kok and take exit D2. I wish I could remember which direction, it's towards the Wang On building IIRC. Chockablock full of mobiles. Shop around though. Bargain and DO NOT buy from the first place you visit. I've purchased phones for $800HKD lower than the first price I encountered simply because I asked around... the
gweilo tax is very apparent here.
