The 2g network menu has been disabled so you can't change your perfered network. It will work with a 2g sim but I heard its a pain cos it keeps searching for a 3g connection.

smoke dog is right certain 7600 (the ones sold on 3G) will not work or jus work occasionally on other networks u can certainly unlock but the phone is hardware locked onto 3G some shops can remove this and flash a normal 7600 flash onto the phone otherwise not worth trying pain in the a**
