i was thinking of something along the lines of this but what i want to know is

to unlock it you will have to jail break it? for my o2 pay as u go sim to work?

im wondering if i use this service will my coverage and phone be perfect and the same way it was? or is there effects?

lastly im wondering do ye think the iphone 3gs are worth around 200 euros?
and can i get alot of apps free?
thanks :P

Have a look at the iTunes store to see which apps are free.

Hard to know who to trust these days buying a phone s/hand. Depends on the firmware etc to know if you can unlock it or not. I don't see any mention of iPhones on that advert for unlocking, so be very careful about what you do.

i sold my unlocked 3gs on ebay...by the time the fees were paid to ebay and paypal, i got 207 euros...wonder if i sold it too cheap now.
