How can they sell so soon?

This is a big scam, don't even think about sending money to this monkeys

Every fibre of my being wants this to be software to be legit, but I gotta say - emails like the one in that article make it look very suspect.

iPhoneUnlockGate '07

They look like total scammers to me. Too much beating around the bush.

Apple?

Ah, the ever reliable "anonymous email source." My last anonymous email source told me he had $15m in a Kenyan bank account he needed help moving. Is there any more reliable source?

Another example of how greed can delay or cease the release of a great product.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if T-Mobile purchased the company. Think about it: iPhone comes to T-Mobile.... brilliant. (T-Mobile, feel free to thank me anytime!)

simply these guys are either
1. Scammers
2. Sellouts to Apple

It is such a joke that anyone is reporting on this. Every site that has reported on this should feel responsible for helping these scammers. I got my eye on you engadget.

Buried for yet another “news item” stemming from an anonymous e-mail source …

HOAX!

Hoax I tell you!

Definitely Apple or At&T.

We have not heard about this from IPSF

Allright... WE GET IT! The iPhone is unlockable! Do I have to hear about every stupid nuance?

HOXA! teh HOXA! ahaahhaa

the undisclosed buyer was probably apple.

Apple has nothing to gain by buying and terminating this company. An open iPhone will only increase sales. The Great and Powerful Jobs swallowed AT&T's load, locked the iPhone, and in the process totally missed an opportunity to change the world in a way it hasn't seen since the first Mac.

AT&T on the other hand is overflowing with money, and has everything to gain by keeping the phone locked. If this isn't fake, I'd bet my left nut AT&T are the buyers.

If someone really did buy out iphonesimfree.com it could turn into a very bad business move...all it takes Apple is to block this software unlock in their next update and they just lost on their "investment". I guess they're hoping to make a ton of money as fast as they can while this works and for that reason I don't get all the delays!!

It is notable that this email came about when iphonesimfree sent an invoice out to a group for payment (by wire transfer to San Marino) and that group transferred the money. This email then came back, saying the group should send the money again, to a different account, because "they've been acquired".

It's really starting to look like a scam.

I bought 200 licenses and I received the same email! When will I get my damn unlock licenses? I am sick of these guys playing with our money.

Get a life and live with commercial reality. Everyone wants something for nothing. If I came up with the idea I would sell it to the highest bidder and so would you.

If you want to unlock your iPhone read this article: http://apcmag.com/7122/how_to_hack_and_iphone_and_get_it_to_work_in_australia_using_your_mac

OR wait until a better phone comes onto the market. At the end of the day it is only a phone. If you need to have one in your pocket 24/7 then you are living a miserable life. Go out, get laid and get rid of the stagnant sap. you will then can think straight.

don't worry soon as one copy of the software deployed to paying customer you will just be able to BT it.

Bullcrap... Lets wait till monday and see whats what.

this is bullsh*t. F*ck these guys and their software that doesnt exist.

They were probably ***** all along

Google?

My bet is Apple!

this post is undisclosed

The software is available for pre-sale on ebay and the listing also has the email form the article. http://cgi.ebay.com/iPhoneSimFree-Unlock-Apple-iPhone-90-Day-MoneyBack_W0QQitemZ260157258552QQihZ016QQcategoryZ43312QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Same site has this- yahoo launches facebook app called hotjobs http://www.techomical.com/my_weblog/2007/09/yahoo-launches-.html

I knew this was going to happen... Why else did they keep reconfirming the unlocking by engadget, cnn, etc... They wanted a buyer!
