I was wrong Belgium iPhones are sold locked, Go to France buy one and pay extra for Authorised Unlock or Italy where the prices are €569 for 16GB White:eek:

No you were right, iPhones are sold factory UNLOCKED in Belgium.
Buy one in Belgium (for €525/8GB and €615/16GB) and you can use it anywhere in the world, with any SIM card you'd like.
 
Pwnage tool.....

You can unlock and 1st gen iPhone using the Pwnage tool..........

iPhone 3g is still not unlock-able as yet unless anyone knows something i dont.........

€45 more for 16GB than if I bought it in Italy even PAYG is cheaper in UK which I might end up doing. & I was wrong according to Apple they are sold locked:(.

I wonder what happens if the phone breaks and you have to get a replacement, will they have to ship one from Belgium for you? :p
 
my iphone was LOCKED to Vodafone, i paid to unlock it, and now all australian sims work in it, however my UK and USA sims dont, but they do work in other unlocked nokia's... hmm... maybe it still is geo locked even when it's unlocked, be sure to test it out before you buy!!
 
iphone

yes i know that belgium sells iphone but my goal was to buy it cheaper.
thank anyway
 
I used iphone geek to unlock my iphone it includes unlock software and allows you to download almost anything for your iphone for a reasonable price.
 
This thread is really old. Newsflash: The original iPhone has been unlockable for a long, long, long time.
 
Which is covered in multiple threads elsewhere without dredging up this thread.
