It's prohibited in Belgium to sell locked phones, so all phones officially imported in Belgium are factory unlocked, including iPhones.
Afaik there are some other countries, where they also sell factury unlocked iPhones.

Iphones have always been locked.
If they are selling it unlocked, then it is jailbroken.

Well, I don't know very much about iPhones, a few friends of mine bought some unlocked ones in Belgium as no shop or network, including Apple, is allowed to sell a locked phone in Belgium.
The iPhones Apple are selling in their own stores shouldn't be jail-broken, I suppose.

Sorry mate but that's completely incorrect - Apple sell the iphone unlocked in Hong Kong via there own website - read the text under the phones:

Australia do!

Well they come locked but the network officially unlock them for you free of charge for contract phones. Or for a fee if bought on pre-paid (PAYG)
I had one for sale here not long ago.
Can get more if need be.

Yup. Italy, HK, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Belgium... and a few more.
There's a link on the Apple site that says which countries carry unlocked phones.
