The Egyptian government has formally asked Apple to remove the GPS function on your phone because they believe that the GPS would only be made available for civilian and not military use. Apple has not had more than block the GPS according to Egyptian law, but this is something strange knowing that the iPhone's software includes the application Google Maps.
If Apple has capado GPS software, certain that soon we will have news that it has been unblocked by a hacker. Therefore, any citizen can acquire the iPhone on eBay or other pages of sale.
Leaving aside a little Egypt, China Mobile could be negotiated for Apple to remove the 3G and WiFi connectivity of the iPhone 3G in their country for political reasons. 3G iPhone without 3G and WiFi, utensil go! (And what irony!).
