I'm sure he's aware it's not available. He's asking people who got it if it's safe to upgrade.
don't be a jerk.

I wasn't being a jerk, I'm legitimately curious if the OP has one and if it has been broken. I find it to be amazing that someone was actually able to hack into the Apple servers to "white-list" IMEI's and there hasn't been much concern about security therein.
I also wanted to make sure the OP wasn't getting his hopes up to use this method had he not used it yet, so I let him know it was no longer available.
Sorry if it came off otherwise.
How confident are you that it will remain unlocked in the coming months? I'm figuring a "fix" by Apple is in the works. Both for this, and the absurd 911 calling sim card.
Don't get me wrong. I wish ip4 was unlocked. Just doubtful that yours will remain so....
To be honest, there's also a decent chance Apple won't "fix" it. They never publicly acknowledged a database breach, and might not bother removing specific IMEI's from their whitelist.

I figure they won't acknowledge the breach and then will quietly purge the offending IMEIs from the whitelist.
Only time will tell, I guess.
Has anyone who had the unlock done had their phone exchanged by Apple? I believe that Apple normally moves the unlock when 'officially' unlocked by the carrier.
