Whatever you do don't try to buy one off ebay at the moment because the prices will be incredibly high and overpriced. If you can't find anywhere else to buy, even the sold out iPhone 3G isn't worth the extra money and you are better off waiting. This happens with all major products releases where there is a chance of it being sold out, don't encourage the people who are trying to make money out of peoples disappointment.
So where can you buy them? Surprisingly if you go into some of the smaller shops in your neighbourhood you will be more likely to find them. These shops get loss of a stock to start with but far fewer people think of looking there.
Another option is the iPhone tracking websites which allow you to look for the nearest shop to you that has them in stock. As the iPhone 3G sold out so quickly these sites can be extremely useful, but make sure you use one which has its list updated regularly.
