My roommate gave me his old iPhone 3g which has been out of contract for some time. He is an at&t customer, I am a Verizon.

I would like to unlock the iPhone so I can use it in Germany with the German carriers' sim.

Since I am not an At&t customer, will I be able to walk into their store and have it unlocked still?

Thank you

At the iPhone hacks section.
You can try AT&T but they might give you the runaround since you're not the original purchased owner and dont have or had an account with them.
I'd suggest to pay the $3-4 and get an imei unlock on ebay.
Its the same thing and will unlock it officially to work with any gsm carrier in the world.
