I guess its cos all networks have different policy and pricing its just the way it is. Just because another network charges X amount does not mean Orange have to charge the same. Orange are generally a slightly more expensive network anyway. You pay more and get a quality network imo

True but it still does not explain why they cost much more even with other companies operating. They are wayyy more.

If its a Sony Ericsson Orange that wants to be unlocked, then its free - using Aerix. Its legal too.

It was in a different language so I used Google Translate, where it says "Not tested on W910i" it actually should say "Tested on a W910i".

It's probably because it either harder to be unlocked, or because it has an amount of branding. Although branding has nothing to do with unlocking, it still costs more because of it.
