UBERNOOBER question here. If it's unlocked, which networks can you run it on? I ask b/c we can't get the phone. We're also on a rural cell network (I think it' Sprint's service), so I'd like to know if it will be possible to use an iphone someday.

Gracias :)

I bet Apple is licking their chops over people screwing up these hardware mods. The Mac sheep are just going to run out and buy a new one.

It wont run on any network. Only GSM networks. Which is Att and Tmobile and a few other small carriers.

Hmmmm let's see.

If you bought a toy at Toys R Us but it has a discalimer that they own the toy and you can only play with it on their playground would you call that a perfect toy???
