I received yet another batch of them tiday, which have all been sold, but I kept one for myself, if you get the right one it's no hassle whatsoever, The ones we source are preactivated and unlocked, so all you have to do is pop your sim in, the Iphone is really really cool.

the interface is unbelievable.

Not saying buy one from em, I don't care, just buy one they are awesome.
Watch Out for our Upcoming Retail Store!!

Please read all the iPhones threads as what you are saying is just wrong they have said nothing of the sort. They are only warning people that after this new firmware 1.11 the things that you could do with your iPhone before may longer be possible any longer they aren't going to break anything.

a locked down iphone is no fun... since i'm a cellphone hobbyist.. i rather have an old iphone firmware that gives me an open source environment vs. a newer firmware locked down iphone that becomes a boring multimedia fashion phone..

if the 3rd party stuff wasn't there im 99% sure i wouldn't still be using an iphone...

the good news is you can remove all hacks from your iphone now.

Also iphone dev team are hot on the tail with a program which will sort out the issues. I believe

@DragonEye,

OK well that's not so bad for now as it means we can buy new iPhones and even if for some bizarre reason 02 don't won't to and aren't forced to sell us unlock codes once we have activated our iPhones with a PAYG iPhone Sim card we can still unlock them.

Just got to wait to see how the Dev's teams get on with all the other Mods but so far this was not as bad as anticipated although don't like all those vulnerabilities in Safari that's a little scary IMO.

@Dogmann

Now you know why they don't list out the updates lol...

well the only thing is we don't know if you can unlock 1.1.1 or downgrade 1.1.1 to 1.0.2 to unlock...

they've decided to leave the phones unlocked.. but that doesn't mean we can unlock the new ones.. they might have shut down all access to the baseband.. but we'll see soon enough i'm sure

@DragonEye,

I know and understand why since the free unlocking became available every one seems to have forgotten about Turbo Sim as it was not a free solution.

But surely we would be able to use either the 02 Sim that comes with the iPhone or even the PAYG iPhone Sim could be used with a Turbo Sim to unlock an iPhone couldn't it? worst case scenario of course.

As you know i am still firmly of the belief i will be able to force either 02 or Apple to unlock the iPhone if they want to or not. But it's always good to have a back up plan just in case i am wrong.

Marc
