Apple iPhone Black Unlocked GSM Cellular Phone

this phones looks amazing!!! will buy one for sure

it's the best looking phone out there!!

looks sweeeeeeeeeeeet!

When is it coming out? can't wait any longerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr : /

i can't wait for this PHONE. when will it be out??? is the iphone for sure going to be unlocked? I heard it was only going to be sold locked through cingular. apple is amazing!!!

all i can say is the apple iphones looks amazing! i agree with everyone else: I CANT WAIT FOR THE APPLE IPHONE! I want to be the first customer. Is the apple iphone really going to be unlocked?

I want to have iPhone in India ? If you can tell me how to buy it..

buy apple iphone unlocked? are you sure it's going to be unlocked? if so sign me up!!! I have heard that the visual voice messaging won't work on a carrier other than cingular becasue it's a feature that is carrier dependant. Doesn't bother me too much because i would prefer to have the iphone unlocked so i use it with t-mobile or rogers / fido in canada and i can travel with it and not have to worry about roaming charges!

apple iphone rules! will get it for sure!!!!

how can you give it 5 out of 5 stars if u havent even heald the phone and the phone isent even out IM A APPLE FAN TO AND WANT THE IPHONE but dont just vote for no reson

I gave it 5 stars because I saw the demo presentation that Steve Jobs did and the iphone looks amazing. Not so sure how they will get the phone unlocked because the iphone will probably have some crazy technology, but it will be a best-seller just like the ipod. Plus, what other phone compares to it? the E6 ROKR from Motorola? I don't think so. It might be more affordable, but the iphone looks 100 times better.

i am getting one yaya

I'm hoping it can meet at the HYPE!

Apple Iphone rocks. I want it in my hand as soon as possible.

Just so everyone knows, you will not be able to buy this phone from anywhere but apple and cingular. They have a multi year contract until 2009. So you wont be getting it off here anytime soon.

the apple iphone looks amazing. i gave it 5 out of 5 stars mainly because of the hype :) when it's released and i'm one of the first to have it I will put a full review of the phone but for now 5 starts for sure!

Will the apple cell phone have itunes on it as well or is the same software as a regurlar apple ipod? is there an iphone mini or iphone nano that going to come out? I heard they are on track to release the phone locked to cingulr in june and then the unlocked version of the apple iphone will be selling on their site in time for back to school.

coming out june 11

well if it is possible.....i gonna buy 1 for sure...............

nice

not possible - i know - i have a friend who works for apple

I want one i cant wait i really want one you think they will have a iphone but a smaller version

It just sucks

Will the Apple iphone unlocked by available on June 29th as well? Are there any other apple cell phones supposed to be released?

Hi If it was really unlocked, I would buy one for sure sign me uppppp

good news

How does Pure Mobile unlock this phone, which Apple clearly states is exclusive to AT&T?

if it's unlocked and gsm based then it would also work in the UK, right? specifically under O2

What is the difference between the apple cell phone, the ipod phone, and the apple iphone? I keep seeing the same picture for all them. I thought ipod and iphone where different. Is Apple launching a ipod phone and at the same time a apple (you know mac branded) cell phone? Can somebody explain to me?

Martin, Please don't play dumb. Apple ipod cell phone and iphone and everything else you said is the SAME THING. iPod is for MP3 players only and iphone is a cell phone with iPod capabilities.

I am a PRADA unlocked GSM phone user and as a user of a touch-screen cellphone, I can say that I am excited and impatient to the launch of the Applie iPhone! This Quad-band phone will not only work better than my tri-band Prada, but it will work great with iTunes (as I am a big user of iTunes). Apple certainly did it wll with WIFI support and a decent 2MP camera. I am putting my name down for one and the price is totally justifiable if you don't have to spend 400$ on an iPod...

@Give_Me_A_Break: They don't unlocked them, they probably already get them like that. For example, the BlackBerry Curve is only available on Cingular but yet you see sellers all over the place selling it unlocked from Cingular. I don't think all these sellers are unlocking BlackBerry Curves... I think it will be the same story with the iPhone.

Don't believe a word of it....Apple has clearly stated the phone will only work on ATT. It will only be shipped to company owned AT&T stores and a fact is that if you were to get it unlocked, wifi, visual voicemail and data features wouldn't work...whats the point of buying a 500.00 phone?

looks awsome!!! will it really be unlocked? how much will it cost??

will the apple iphone be available on June 29th as well? I would like to pre order the unlocker version with the 8GB hard drive. How would I go about getting my name on the waiting list? Thanks. Simon

If this is true, puremobile will have my money, if it is not, cnet should ban them from being a certified store and every apple fans will hunt down everyone who works for puremobile for putting this up.

When is the waiting list starting for the apple cell phone? If the apple cell phone is unlocked I am readdy to down $700. I travel a lot and if it works, I could take the phone everywhere. It's just gorgeous this phone.

It would be great if you have it unlocked

hi

i want the phone asap that is if it truly is unlocked and fully functions in canada let me know!!!!

wow, a phone that plays music and videos. unless it come with a built in microwave, i'm not really seeing any revolutionary technology here. since these are not going to be unlocked by a 3rd party, good luck getting any warranty support for them.

how would u activate the iPhone if it has to be activatd in itunes and thats when you choose your plan. puremobile is most likely jsut saying they have it unlocked. itll stay "coming soon" until someone figures out how to unlock it. ive heard it won't work with any other carrier besides At &T which sucks for me cuz i live in Canada. if any one finds out wether it is really going to be available unlocked or not let me know.

This phone will not be unlocked for the simple fact that the SIM is internal to the device you can't remove it or change it. And if not activated through Itunes none of it's features will work and that includes the Music player. Exclusive means Exclusive Apple doesn't play arround when it comes to their stuff. When is the last time you could buy Dell with an Apple OS or an HP or an Lenovo....point made.

Apple states that unlocked iPhones will loose some features that are tied up to AT&T as Internet and SMS, it is true?

Pricing? Is it really unlocked? Proof?

When can we buy it from your site?

Hi would an unlocked iphone work with sprint?

So the phone has been released in the U.S. ... What does coming soon mean? Six months? 1 Year? Never?.....

OK, THE IPHONE CANNOT BE UNLOCKED. AT&T AND APPLE HAVE COME TO AN AGREEMENT THAT THE PHONE WILL BE COMPLETELY EXCLUSIVE TO AT&T AND THAT THEY WILL NOT OFFER WHAT IS CALLED A SUBSIDY UNLOCK CODE SO THAT THESE PHONES CAN BECOME UNLOCKED. THE PHONES ARE COMPLETELY EXCLUSIVE TO AT&T WITH THE SIM CARD INSTALLED INTO THE PHONE (YOU CANNOT EVEN USE YOUR OLD AT&T OR CINGULAR SIM CARD). THE FEATURES ON THE PHONE WILL NOT WORK ON OTHER CARRIERS

today its the 1st and the iphone aint out .... I can wait no longuer

@notdumb Apparently you are dumb unfortunately. There is no reason to suggest that WiFi wouldn't work if the phone is unlocked. EDGE probably won't work. But WiFi is a separate data channel and not tethered to Cingular/AT&T's network by any means. However you would be correct in stating that visual voicemail won't work without some serious hacking.

Why wouldn't an unlock iPhone also work in Europe, Asia and really any part of the world that uses GSM? If I buy an unlocked phone, I want to work everywhere, not just in NA.

...all that money for a mobile phone...

i doubt it will be unllocked , hopefull tho :P

long live the apple revolution

when the unlocked one come?

You guys are idiots of course it will be unlocked just a matter of time? Can the rzr be unlocked punk ass bitches. Don't believe a word of it....Apple has clearly stated the phone will only work on ATT. It will only be shipped to company owned AT&T stores and a fact is that if you were to get it unlocked, wifi, visual voicemail and data features wouldn't work...whats the point of buying a 500.00 phone? This guys is a moron of course it will be un locked and yes just give it time punk...

Great !

is it ulocked.that means it will work in asia.if it is will u deliver it too.

Hello, I really want this phone, but I'm T-mobile, and I don't want to change to AT&T, based on this website they will have it unlocked, are we going to be able to use all the features of the phone? please let me know because I don't want to spent that money if I can't thanks.

Ok a couple facts. Yes it can and will be unlocked. There is nothing to prevent hackers from doing it. They said that about Blu-Ray, and guess what it was cracked. They said that about DVD and guess what it was cracked. They said that with Vista, and Mircosoft spent hundreds of millions and it was cracked. Anything public can and will be cracked. Second the visual voice mail is the only feature that will not work, you will have to live with the current normal voice mail. All other features including Wi-Fi and Edge will work. Third its already cracked for activation, you can now use it as a iPod and Camera with out AT&T activation. So its just a matter of a full unlocked phone now to make the phone work anywhere. And for those that say its clearly stated that it will only work with AT&T, wake up to technology already. Nothing is crack proof.

Amazing fone. i want the phone asap that is if it truly is unlocked and fully functions in Pakistan let me know!!!!

Huzur, everything can be cracked to a point. For instance the iPhone's SIM chip is completely different from the regular SIM chips. So, even if you can crack the software, your chip from another company WILL NOT WORK.

Notorious and Huzur don't have any idea what they are talking about. When the OEM and a carrier design a phone from the ground up to work on only one network, they are unable to be used on other networks for the simple fact that they are designed to work on specific type of network configurations (both hardware and software). Not all GSM networks are created equal... Even if you were able to hack the phone to the point of operating on another network, the user experienced would be so dimished, that it wouldn't even warrant the effort (or the cost). All I can say is wait it out and eventually Apple will develop ones for all the other carriers as well (possibly even CDMA, but that is dying animal)

I agree with Huzur. Some guy already posted photos of how to remove the SIM card, take apart and put back together the iPhone. Thing is, to get it, you need a two-year contract with AT&T. If it's truly unlocked, all you would need to do is buy the phone, activate on a two-year term, pay an early cancellation fee (ECF) which might be hefty, take apart the phone, put your SIM card in, but it back together, and everything but the Visual Mail should work. Also, your warranty won't work either lol.

When?

not sure heres one of many links http://thinksecret.com/archives/iphonetakeapart/

iphone has been cracked wide open already

Sure dude IPHONE is super but my doubt is if i buy one gsm iphone with out lock will work with Airtel Mobile Services in India

yeah sum1 tell me if the i-phone if unlocked will work with airtel sim in India??? Please let me know ASAP as i have sum1 cumin down frm the US in a weeks time n if it works i can ask thm to get 1 for me.

once a phone is unlocked it should work anywhere in the world on any gsm carrier.

Would i be able to buy a phone off the internet and unlock it through itunes because i am a Canadian resident;

you don't need to take the phone apart to remove the SIM card. the SIM is removable!! the only thing is that right now the iphone only work with the sim that you activate the iphone and that is trough itunes and AT&T

hmm let me say this. iPhone is a great phone. unlocked or not? I believe someone can unlock it just in minutes. Let see my story. I stayed at the US for almost 5 whole year. And get a phone a Ericson T26 world with Pre-paid Voicestream provider (I was at Colorado). Then when i back to LA i need to buy minutes, but no where to find at LA. Then my friend told me to use cingural or t-mobile (i forgot). But then it's not working, i know they merge somehow. Few later after changing phone. I bought a Cingular phone (Nokia) but with T-Mobile service. And i brought it to my country and it's work with my country GSM provier. My friend bought the same phone and bring it to with me bit not working. Why? I bought it a chinese store (they can unlocks phones) and he bought it at their retail store. i have 4 phones that i get from the US only only one that i cant use (sprint, no sim card inside they have inject the card inside). so unlocking or not, wait until its arrive asian market. I sure once it's reach asian market the phone already unlocked. Like her in my country, you can use lots of different provider in 1phone any phone, just change the sim card. or upgrade it, 1 phone 2 number (yeah there a mod kits like that). Just suggestions buy iPhone ay HongKong if u travel around or S'pore. HongKong much cheaper.

On August 24th 2007 it was announced on engadget that unlocked iphone will finally become a reality. Here is the link for the apple iphone unlocked article on engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/24/iphone-unlocked-atandt-loses-iphone-exclusivity-august-24-2007/

Apparently there is another company reporting that hey can unlock the iphone. It's weird that all of a sudden there are many iphone unlocking solutions available at once. There should be an iphone forum on puremobile just to discuss all the apple iphone unlocking solutions on the net. Apple and iphone are really going to sell through the roof now that the apple iphone cell phone is unlocked for any gsm network. At&t tried so had to avoid the sim-free iphone for nothing! serves them right :)

george hotz is the teen that unlocked the iphone. his web site posts the instructions to unlock an iphone http://iphonejtag.blogspot.com/

Dude i wish i was smart enough to follow the steps on how to unlock the iphone. I mean seriously on ebay theres one that went for 2 grand. 2 GRAND!!! I WANT 2 GRAND FOR AN HOURS WORTH OF WORK!!!

will the price eventually Come Down?

I for one will not be buying an iPhone even if by the time i want a new phone theyre down to 20 dollars, heres why : no video camera, no picture or video messaging, the onscreen keyboard is much slower to use than say the QWERTY of the LG EnV, that screen is going to need constant cleaning, and i would not want to pay upwards of 2 thousand dollars for an unlocked one just so i could be on my own choice of network, and as far as being a music phone, i would much rather use a sony ericson phone over a phone with iTunes, but thats just me

where to buy an iphone for verizon? will the iphone work with sprint or nextel?

I would like to purchase an apple i phone. Do you think the i phone price will drop a lot in the next few months? I have seen the apple i phone cost around 600 at the at&t store but they don't have the unlocked i phone... Thanks.

The iphone is unlocked, and now can be software unlocked by plugging it in and clicking unlock. Furthermore, to activate the iphone without itunes so you don't sign a contract, search "activate iphone" on google download the piece of software, plug it in, and click activate software. For the so called apple employee, if you were, you would understand that apple plans to release there phone to the public in the unlocked form after 2 years, they did not design too os x platforms for it,(1 locked 1 not) they simply used a sim lock algorithm which can be taken off by cracking the code, which 3 companies already have. If you really were an apple employee you would know this. And no, the sim card is not internal, you can remove it with a paper clip at the top.

This is an awesome phone! i can't believe it's unlocked already, sweet! And the price is a lot better now! :) For those of you thinking about if you should buy it or not, I recommend you do, but first check out this site for tips on how to install third party apps! http://hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6027 Have fun! ;)

Is it available to ship to Russia or other countries?

Has anyone bought it yet? THinking of buying one for my girlfren!

lowest price I found ...

awesome phone!...i'd prolly get one if it came a bit cheaper!

love the iphone. have had it for a week now and it's really worth the hype!

did you buy it from here? any problems using with a different service provider then ATT?

Has anyone bought an actual iphone from pure mobile? Any problems with it? I really want to buy one from this site...does it work for rogers? I want to know all the details...haha

whate? a do work this phone bangladeshi sim

Hi, any idea what king of data plan you need for this? I have a rogers $60 Blackberry plan for 200 mb. Can I just swap sims (after unlock) and the data comes out of the 200 mb? Or do I need another data plan?

I just received this phone in Vancouver and am using it with Rogers with no problems. Nothing else is even close to this phone in quality and usability for your average user. Previously I had used the Rokr E6 which is a fine phone, but not in the same league in any way. One warning tho...Apple may soon disable these unlocked phones via a firmware update. Do not use Itunes 7.4 and do not update your unlocked phone.

i am wondering if i should get a phone from here. To be honest, I will be quite happy if I can recieve sms and phone calls

sk, your going to be fine with rogers. I did the same thing. With that plan however, you'll be charged $0.07 per kb if you go over. Limit your data usage for the first month just to see where you're at, then you'll be able to gauge it the following month. Also, depending where you are, you're going to have a hell of a time getting the full EDGE network from rogers in anything but extremely urban areas. The rogers network simply isn't ready to handle the iPhone yet.

Why are there no postings from ANYONE who has bought the phone from pure mobile?

Guys! This is a good phone BUT consider this: -every 9 months a new apple product comes out (read the news) -if you wait 9 months, the next iphone will have faster internet (internet speed on current iphone depends on location and reception) -the touch screen is quite hard to control -check out the prada phone, it looks JUST like the iphone...makes me wonder who copied who... that's all, if all the aboce criteria dont bother you, i think iphone might be the one for you!

whats the deal with the credit card authorization form that needs to be signed? does puremobile send you this from or what?
