True iPhone liberation has really arrived. Kudos to the people around the World who have used the internet to communicate and solve a problem that not one, or ten people alone could have.
The free version of the software unlock is finally out there. We aim to get a new, wrapped in cellophane, iPhone and document the whole process of activating it, unlocking it, and moving to a foreign carrier.

Plan is this (keep in mind, this will all take place in France from unwrapping to calling):
- Activate Phone: We are tempted to use DVD Jon's method but are instead opting for the "TUAW method" which involves entering a nonworking SS# and opting to get the AT&TGO pay as you go plan - but of course, never paying - just "GOing". This should activate the phone without costing us anything.
- Unlock Phone: Unlocking the phone with the buffer overflow "movie file" that the iUnlock application yields. Again, Amazing work people.
- Use Phone: We have a work SIM from Vodaphone UK (unlimited EU data) and an Orange France Pay as you go plan. We hope to use both for both data and calling
- Install 3rd Party Apps like a IM client, terminal Client and other fun stuff that is out there. We broke down all of the Hacking sites here.
Our iPhone is currently clearing customs at Charles de Gaul Airport. God speed little guy!

no half ass videos like
no half ass videos like engadget please! ... half the time they don't show the sim tray popping out and just show the sim once is out and in their hands .. I know it doesn't matter anymore as we know it really does work ...
just saying that if you are going to document the unlock process and if you are going through all this pain (pain? did I say pain? sorry .. an enthralling experience) do it well!
kudos ..

now I have a question, I am currently using cingular, but do not want to pay the extra 20 bucks a month for sms/grps, by unlocking it, would I be able to do this If I unlock it...

theoretically, yes but it might be worth paying AT&T for the EDGe wireless
Looking forward to the
Looking forward to the guide. Bring on a free unlock.
Not sure if anyone will know, but is there any reason my '3 Mobile' contract SIM card will not work in an unlocked iPhone?
iPhone Canada
Ok quick question, and I apologize if its blindingly obvious. I live in Canada and I want to use an iPhone primarily as an iPod but be able to make a call once in a while. I have an exsiting 'Pay as you go' sim card on Virgin. Will this work?
BTW I don't mind not having internet capabilities.
Thanks!
