The 3G network is only available if you signed up with AT&T anyway. If you're able to unlock the modem on the 3G iPhone, you will still not get 3G speeds (but you can use WiFi just fine).

If you're looking for a software unlock, you can visit http://www.unlockmy3giphone.com.

Wait, sorry was being thick, just found it, so it looks like everything works fine then! Thats good news, will investigate this with 3 mobile I think

No, unfortuntaly not, does he talk about using the 3sim in the iPhone then? Do you have a link (apologies, im having trouble finding the podcast you're referring to)

Just read about someone else having problems with the 3sim in the iPhone so it sounds like it may not be possible tho

I think he might mean the shitness of the 3G in the iPhone 3G - see here..

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08/13/iphone_...

So regardless of what 3G network the phone is on, the phone is fundamentally flawed..

Has anyone tried or seen evidence of a 3 mobile sim card working in an iPhone 3G? I am currently on my 18th month of an 18 month contract with 3 and I am definatly switching to an iPhone, currently I have got hold of a 2g iPhone (obviously doesnt work with the 3g Sim) and I was going to switch to another netowotk like vodafone ect with their sim only contract.

HOWEVER

3 are currently offering me a contract for

It depends on your needs, but for me this means the option to put in foreign SIMs when traveling or to swap to 3 for '3 like home' in Ireland…. and the option to use my bundled O2 minutes in a 'real' phone and keep the iphone for what it's good for – browsing / e-mail,

It's clever stuff, but if you've got a 3G iPhone you're already paying for, and locked into, an 18-month contract.
I can see the point if you're unhappy with the 02 network; but there's no escaping that you're running two contracts instead of one. The benefits outlined in other comments here seem pretty marginal to me, though I'm happy to be persuaded/enlightened.

I think I might swap a Three PAYG data SIM into my iPhone3G and just use it as a internet-connected tablet with the O2 SIM in another handset as my main number…
