Hi Ray, With the iPhone you have to ask your carrier to unlock it for you. If you are with AT&T you can call them and ask, but I am not sure if they do it while you are under contract. If you are past your 2 years I believe they are obligated to unlock the phone for you. From what I heard they send instructions after they do whatever it is they have to do on their end. You then have to hook your phone up to iTunes and do a restore and once this is done you should get a message that your phone is now unlocked.
When are you going to England and for how long? You can reply direct, [email protected].

Does the same hold with the IPhone? Ray T. Mahorney WA4WGA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
