[SOLVED] iPhone - I don't think so

[lisati]

I think I won't bother with an iPhone - I can't be bothered buying the extra bit that sits between the phone and the SIM card to fool the phone into thinking that it's connecting to AT&T when it's really connecting to our local GSM provider.......

Actually, they unlocked it. And you can run homebrew on it and a lot more apps, but you need windows sadly. . . . and you can skip activation with out itunes.

No need to open it up, just run the software and go.
