Can the iPhone 3G be Unlocked?
At the time of writing this article (29th August 2008), there is currently no software iphone 3g unlock available. The only way to unlock the iPhone 3g at the moment is using a hardware SIM (which hasn't been fully tested, and obviously is only good for use with 1 iPhone). It's not very cheap either, starting at $99.99!

So, whats going on with the iPhone 3G Unlock?
Right now the 3G iPhone can be Jailbroken, this means it can be modded to install 3rd party applications/tools to your iPhone (this will be required when it comes to unlocking your 3G iPhone). The software unlock for the 3G iPhone is literally just round the corner. With companies like iUnlock iPhone 3G  who garuntee to deliver the iPhone 3G unlock the minute it becomes available, you can rest assured. You can sign up to the iPhone 3G Unlocking Updates Newsletter from iUnlock iPhone 3G and be notified instantly via e-mail when the unlock is released.


Where should you Unlock your iPhone?
Now-a-days you can find software available for free on the internet that can unlock your iPhone. Software like ZiPhone and iBrickr were popular free tools for the iPhone 1.1.4 firmware versions. However, using the free methods available on the net do have their downsides:

  1. No Support - If you use free software like ZiPhone, iBrickr, AnySIM etc. you'll find that the developers don't provide support with their software. So if you did have any problems you would have no professional help.
  2.  

  3. No Updates - Using free software/sources also doesn't garuntee you updates in the future when new firmware is released. For example ZiPhone was very popular until iPhone 2.0 was released, and there has been no news of a new ZiPhone program for iPhone 2.0, so you face the risk of being locked back out by Apple.
  4.  

By signing up for an iPhone Unlock Service like iUnlock from iUnlock iPhone 3G, you have to pay £16.00/$30.00 but that buys you a lifetime of iPhone Unlocking, updates & support!
