i had one 2 months before they came out in uk from states - easy to unlock -

if u like the internet - great phone

if u like ringtones - forget it-not loud at all and the speaker on the phone that plays them has broke -still plays on the headphones (replacing that part will cost me £88) with not many people around willing to do the service) so yeah if your rich get it on contract

and great for music

thats my experience
