Yikes! Scary stuff. Your story inspired me..... I am traveling to
Australia next month and had planned to just shut down phone & data.
Instead, I unlocked my phone last night (all of 5 min.). Now, I will
just get a new sim card when I get there.
Now that the phone is unlocked/jailbroken, I can also load non-itunes
apps. This process was not so simple, as there is a TON of out-dated
and overly-complicated instructions out there. Once the info is
sorted, it's quite easy and just involves downloading the correct
utility apps.
