Seriously, you guys complain about everything. If you don't want or need the unlock then don't buy it. I would love to have my phone software unlock by the dev-team but waited for more than 5 months already.So for now this will do. I should have one coming by Monday so I'll let you guys know how it turn out.

Exactly. And think how fast the time will fly once you can call from your phone till a unlock comes out and we can use that, no more desperate waiting game.

Anywhoo, where did you buy yours from? Mydalle.com said they will ship it next week so I'm hoping to get mine within a week
 
via the ApplenBerry Twitter:

"Pricing will be $75 a piece. We do not have enough for wholesale pricing for initial launch"
 
Would be cheaper to sell your iPhone and buy an unlocked one from the UK

New ones go for £400 here on ebay
 
it's an interesting product, now calling 112 all the time to get re-certified or whatever seems to me that it would make your iPhones IMEI be blocked pretty fast...

I agree.
If you gotta spend $75 for this BS turbo sim with all its shortcommings mind as well sell your locked iphone 4, put that $75 towards a factory unlocked unit and leave the headaches behind.
I dont know how some of you hold off with a phone you cant use for 5+ months.

If you can buy a New factory unlocked for £400 = US$645, I buy them all from you and I give you $25 profit on each phone.

SAME HERE!!
New Unlocked iPhones 4 on eBay costs atleast $850... And if i ship it to here it's $200 Taxes... I wish it was that simple as you say.

Same here. I had to get my friend to shove my iPhone up his ass to bring it where I live.

Actually I'm going to pick mine up on Monday when the Gevey dealer that I'm going to get from receive his shipment. He's one of the official gevey dealers located in New York City. He didn't want to advertise yet and doesn't want to do preorder because he's waiting till he receive his shipment first.

I bet he wishes there was an iPhone nano...

lol,that was funny!

...stop trolling. It seems you can get rich now by flipping iPhone.

totally agree! Some people here loves to complain about anything and always talk sh.t but I don't pay them no mind ,I just do what I have to.
 
Please post the result here. I think I can another week since I've been waiting over a month already. thanks.;)
 
OMG $70 from applenberry. Ridiculous. Using the method they do I wonder if the carriers might blacklist your IMEI from getting on their network?
 
Are you serious? Why do you think we paid? I'll let you in on a secret, It's because the Dev-Team don't have the unlock yet and some of us have waited forever.:rolleyes:

If you can pay $70 for this questionable unlock that might get blocked by your carrier or even blacklist your phone then why cant you pay for a factory unlocked unit?
You know that with the next update Apple will make this device useless and even tell carriers to block the acess point used by it.
And to go thru the trouble of doing this back and forth maybe several times a day to get signal and be able to connect to your network is worthless IMO.
But I guess some people got money to blow on things like that but cannot a afford to either buy an unlocked iphone or use one on an official carrer.
I dont know, maybe Im crazy for thinking this way....

Ok, first let me start by saying that I understand your reasoning. But I got this phone as a gift and I gave it to my son to use as an ipod touch all these months. Second, I don't use the official carrier because I don't need and don't want to pay extra for the data plan, because most of the place I go have wifi. Third, I'm already on tmobile with the family plan and it's much cheaper for me. So I don't need or want to switch to att. And lastly, where did you get your info from that we have to do the things a few times a day to get the unlock? you only have to do it once until you reboot your phone. But maybe you reboot your phone a few times a day, but I don't so I don't worry about that .
Also, alot of people are not from the US or from country with officially unlocked iphones and could only get the iPhones that are available to them. They have no other choice but to buy this sim if they want to unlock and use their iphones.

You've said that about 4 times and seriously dude i think we all realized your opinion on the first time, As you can see the reasons for buying a locked iPhone repeats themselves and it's so useless to ask that over anad over again.
In my country they really don't care about such things so I am sure they'll never block IMEI or whatever cause they have no right to do that. My carrier can't know i got an iPhone or any other cell phone, They got about 4million subscribers so i'm sure they don't check each one... Also, on my Orange profile it just says i still got an old 3G cell phone and this profile wasn't made by me. It was made by Orange.
And really, Just stop depressing people. Why are you being so negative all the time????
