Do *any* O2 contract SIMs work with the iPhone?

The Simplicity Online 25 is a good deal, £25 a month for 500 texts, 600 minutes and unlimited web bolt-on with no contract period (30 days). You do however need to unlock the phone still.

The onlines give you 1000 texts.

What we need is a task force which finds and eliminates people who ask stupid questions on the internet.

Hell if Google were to start recruiting I'd sign up in a second, I might even bring my own noob-beating stick

So they are going to cut off the 25% or maybe even more of their revenue just for some stupid single carrier thing?

I don't think apple are that stupid TBH!! Ok it might not get easier but Im 99% sure it won't get harder.

25% of their revenue? They make their money from the contracts on the iPhone; I'd be surprised if they make anything at all on the hardware in real terms.

If people want cheap phones then Apple need the revenue sharing and will continue to try and stop people unlocking. The alternative is Apple drop the so called "stupid single carrier thing" and charge circa £3-500 for the handset.

I still expect the new phone to be hacked, but I'd imagine it will take slightly longer than hacking 2.0 on the current hardware will.
