Has anyone placed a SIM card from AT&T from a regular plan that has nothing to do with the iphone into an iPhone? Does the iPhone work?
thank you
thank you
Europe by end of 2007, and Asia early 2008. It would be really stupid of Apple if they don't sell the iPhone unlocked in Asia, since everybody else (Nokia, SE, Moto, Samsung, LG, etc) are selling unlocked phones. It would be really ironic though if we in the US have to import an iPhone to get an unlocked version.You don't really think they are gong to sell unlocked iPhone's do you? If so, have a nice 5 year wait.
I'll be waiting until Apple wise up and sell unlocked iPhones. So far, the only thing AT&T has done is ****** off some potential customers through failed activations and poor customer service.
I've been reading up from a lot of forums, especially Howardforums.com where they live and breathe phones. The deal is that any AT&T SIM card will work in the iPhone, but only if it's activated with an iPhone plan. You can't take your SIM card activated under another plan and use it in the iPhone. However, you can take a SIM card activate with the iPhone and use it in another AT&T or unlocked GSM phone.
AT&T does not allow any other plans or discount programs, such as corporate discounts, with the iPhone, not even for iPhone related accessories. This is what I've heard from people with first hand experience.
Good for you. Unfortunately not all people share the same story as yours.Having been a person who had activation problems your comment here is way off. The service I received was excellent the customer service reps went out of there way to provide a solution to my activation problem. I would have been happier if the activation went smother but it had more to do with Verizon than ATT.
Incorrect SIM Please connect to iTunes to reactivate iPhone.
