Now we just wait and see if the next Firmware update from Apple undoes it or at least prevents a locked iPhone from being unlocked.
The D Train @ Sep 10th 2007 1:44PM
I wouldnt be surprised if apple has another firmware update set up and ready to go for when this went live lol. Information has been floating around for a week or so if not longer now.
SuCrAm @ Sep 10th 2007 2:15PM
i feel dumb asking this but what are the benefits of unlocking the iphone?
The D Train @ Sep 10th 2007 2:24PM
People who dont want AT&T service can pop another sim in there and use the Iphone pretty much wherever with whomever they want to.
bioadam @ Sep 11th 2007 12:44AM
I agree. Until the iPhone offers more than EDGE, why bother?
Atman @ Sep 11th 2007 2:01AM
hopefully it works in India
DryGoatAir @ Sep 11th 2007 5:24AM
I might be mistaking but the iPhone didn't have a sim-slot, right?
WetGoatAir @ Sep 11th 2007 9:44AM
@DryGoatAir:
You are smoking crack rock. :-) All GSM phones have SIM slots. iPhone included; I believe it is on the top of the phone.

I'm a little confused- I've read all news, watched the videos, but after unlocking with IPSF, do you still have to do a "fake activation" with ATT? Maybe once you buy the software there's better instructions?
