Well, I have "activated" the iPhone using a bit of internet trickery however due to it having the latest baseband firmware I can't "unlock" it to use on Australian networks. However this crack is only days away so it should be up and going before Christmas........hopefully!
UPDATE / 1 JAN 2008 : Nup, not going as a phone yet but a TurboSIM is on the way so that will definitely solve the problem!
I'm pretty damn excited, ordered a new Apple iPhone a couple of days ago and it is winging its way from the U.S as I write this. Hopefully my geek knowledge should allow me to successfully crack it to use on the Telstra network - I'll report back when it is done! Bring it on! I am sooooo looking forward to this I bet there ends up being a problem like.... I receive a box full of nothing or it is smashed or I fail at cracking it and end up turning it into an expensive paperweight!
