i phone question - please help!

[Astrid28]

Hello!

I don't actually have an i phone, but DH would love one, however he is with T Mobile on a linked contract with all his business phones/my phone etc. So leaving T Mobile is not an option at the moment.

Can I just buy an i phone for him to use with his T Mobile SIM card or are they blocked or 3G use only?

Thanks in advance for any help!

They are blocked, but I think even if it was unlocked it would cost you loads more to use.

I think Orange is taking over T mobile, but not sure... Orange have iphone soon..

Hopefully someone else more knowledgeable will be along soon!

Orange is having them very soon, have been told it will be before xmas.

You can get them unlocked on play.com

You're right drinkmore, I just checked ebay and they're coming up pretty pricey.

I'll have a look on play now.

Thanks!

Astrid, could you send me a message, I was talking to T-Mobile about leaving this morning and had some interesting options (click "contact poster next to my name to send me a message)
