There is no locking now, as the Commerce Commission sent them a warning letter about that type of practice. Also if they had a prepay version, do expect to pay the best part of $1000 for the handset. |

I don't think that Vodafone are as "onto it" as they claim when it comes down to what the customer wants considering that the retiring Vodafone Global CEO Arun Sarin initially turned the iPhone down when first approached by Apple which is how O2 got in first. I'm just following the iPhone sign up process here which could make things interesting... www.appleinsider.com n_at_home.html Apple are NOT requiring the iPhone to be sold "locked" they are just requiring the owner to register instore - which amounts to the same thing- so that the likes of O2 or Vodafone get a guaranteed revenue stream. |
