Hey,
Right I am needing a new phone (this will be around Dec/Jan time) - I am currently on a £15 contract with 3 and its pretty hunky-dory.
However, since I sold my iPod I really do miss it. Now I don't care if you say "dont get the iPhone" because I am pretty set on it now.
1) Can the iPhone 3G be unlocked yet?
2) If I bought a 3G from the US, would it work fine over here when unlocked?
There was other stuff but I can't remember lol!

1) You could try getting it unlock in China Town, they run stuff like that, I tried it.
2) Yes, it will work fine.
With the phone on O2, do you get unlimited data too? (PAYG)
I'm not sure lol.Quote:

Actually im not sure if it would work over here seeing as im sure they use different frequencies over there? :S
They do. Some guy won an iPhone from a user in the USA. And hes currently using it now, although that is the 1G model.Quote:

But yeah it's good if you actually use the ammount in the contract. But the PAYG has unlimited wifi for the first year but you must have topped up by £10 every month to use it, but it doesn't charge you.
Yoshi, is your iPhone a 3G or the previous gen? I'm really considering this but the O2 contracts are terrible so its either going to be O2 PAYG or Unlocked?
I need some definitive answers to if it can be unlocked! :]
Mines an unlocked 2G! And the contracts are shocking thats why i got it unlocked. And i am considering getting the 3G PAYG. But i am not too sure on unlocking them, only know about the contracts. But to unlock the iphone 3G i don't see what benefits you gain from it apart from getting a contract one cheaper. Becuase all the WIFI is with 02 and so you can't get that free.
