Re: Unlocked cell phone

If the phone's features are compatible with the service provider; there is no reason for these features to not function correctly. It is possible to unlock a cell phone, but it is also possible to buy a phone that was never locked in the first place. Among others, tigerdirect.ca sells unlocked phones (mine is a Motorola that was never locked and all the functions work, with Rogers).

Totally irresponsible, unnecessary, dangerous, immature and reprehensible. In other words brillant!

Your new iphone will work fine unlocked. Just avoid ios4 if it's a 3 series.

iPhone 3G with iOS 4, unlocked, works absolutely fine.
Tried it with a Vodafone (Europe) and Airtel (India) SIM cards.

Let me rephrase that. Be wary of updating your 3G to ios4.
