It seems that only phones from the carphone warehouse and there affiliates are unlocked most others are still locked when you get them m8

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there some new law passed just recently, which said something about sellers having to make ALL new phones capable of using any network? :confused:

I would tell 3 you want to stay with them (lie?), but you want it unlocking to use your separate business sim, which is on another network! :genius:
That should get you unlocked?

That was a good link which clarified the locked sim situation quite nicely DD.
Very useful, so your good deed done we will leave you to play in peace, then report back! :mp:

Well i managed to grab a few hours playing with the phone and i am very impressed.
My old phone was a sammy jet and the scrolling was not that good but this galaxy is very very good i like the snap function its just like the iphone and works as well too.
Navagation is very good and as accurate as my tomtom.
email is easy to set up and use.
Im having a few probs with bluetooth but im sure thats the lappy at fault not the phone.
HD Movies wow they are really clear only 720 but very good all the same.
Camera pics are great with face reconition and chrystal clear.
I need to sort out the blue tooth so i can load some music onto it the radio is good head phones are very comfy to wear and sound is great.


Hope this helps some.
This is so far the best mobile i have had.
