I'm having the same problem; I was interested to see if the anysim program, etc would work, and after using a new Cingular sim card, I can't get anything to work.

Hopefully somebody has a resolution to this soon...]]>Sep 27th 2007 10:01PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/27/iphone-update-re-locking-handsets-disabling-3rd-party-apps/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/27/iphone-update-re-locking-handsets-disabling-3rd-party-apps/
First off, Apple changed the IMEI on your iPhone to a special one that identifies your phone was unlocked by third party software. If you take your phone to a Genius Bar or call Apple Support, they will ask for the IMEI number. If it's this special IMEI, they will stop and not help you any further.

HOWEVER...

There is an unconfirmed bug that the 1.1.1 update is causing the same IMEI activation message on AT&T GoPhone (prepaid) accounts. If you tell the person at the Genius Bar that this is a GoPhone account, they will replace your iPhone right then and there with no further questions. You must have an AT&T SIM card in the phone, but the Apple employees have no way of verifying whether or not it is a GoPhone account or not.]]>Sep 27th 2007 11:03PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/27/iphone-update-re-locking-handsets-disabling-3rd-party-apps/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/27/iphone-update-re-locking-handsets-disabling-3rd-party-apps/
