Hey looking for some help. Currently using a blackberry with wifi. I use my blackberry a lot for emails. Have been looking lately at getting a itouch for in the gym and on flights and stuff but want to ask a few questions about the iphone.

Can I unlock the iphone and use my existing orange sim and contract. If i unlock it do i lose any features.
Can I pick up me gmail emails from it like on the blackberry.
Can the phone be put into flight mode so it can still be used as a video/music player.

Basically can it do what my blackberry does without changing my contract, or am i best just sticking to the blackberry and buying an itouch.
Thanks.
 
You can easily get gmail mail on the iphone. There is a flight option so you keep using functions not requiring cell or internet usage. Have no idea about unlocking. That is way out of my comfort zone.

FWIW, my husband has a blackberry and hates my iphone. Thinks the Blackberry is far more functional for his needs.

We don't know yet.

Yes.




Sorry for the lack of info, someone who knows more should drop by shortly.
