Can someone help me out - I have a couple of questions.

iPhone newbie here - so bear with me

I'm wanting to get my GF an iPhone 4 ( not 4s ). So I want to buy second hand. She has an Orange sim only contract. What are my option - go for an unlocked phone, or an Orange phone?

Will she need a new sim to get all things working on the new phone? If so - how do you go about it ( i.e. - phone up Orange and ask?? ).

Anything I should watch out for when buying a used iPhone 4 - probably look on Ebay, don't want to buy a stolen phone or anything like that.

Thanks all

lets see.

Unlocked or organge locked will work.
I think she'll need a new sim as the 4 uses a micro sim. Once the carrier gives her that she'll be able to use it.
Never bought a phone from Ebay so my only advice is: if something looks to good to be true it probably is. Good luck.
