quote: no it was a MD of a communications (Certicell) bought it off him for 3 iPhones and a 350Z. But no, if you got an iPhone from the states it wouldn't work over here, even when O2 goes live with their iPhone - you'll have to get it unlocked, which isn't that easy. There was an irish company coming out with a software hack, but that got balled over by Apple. However, there is suppose to be another software hack out there that works, was on theregister.co.uk or the theinquirer.net :thumbs: | |

It's only on O2 isn't it? Who won't make use of the EDGE | |

Had a play with one in the office a few weeks back, looks great other than the fingerprint marks EVERYWHERE ( :| ) | |

TBH the spec of the iPhone is pretty poor and not worth the hype imo | |

Currently you cannot use an iPhone in the uk unless you are handy with a soldering Iron. | |

The EDGE for the internet won't IIRC, nor will the visual voicemail thing. As long as it's unlocked, they have GSM capabilities so should work in Europe. | |
