Now that your said that I'm going to get it unlocked now hahaits dead easy to get iphones unlocked by the way, if you got it on a contract more than 12 months ago, call the provider and just ask them to unlock your phone so you can give it to a friend, as far as i know none of them will charge you and it is normally done within a day or so. im using a phone i got from Stoney, when he called his provider it was unlocked in about an hour, all i had to do was connect it to itunes and it then accepted any sim
