    Not with any more ease than an other locked iPhone. All you can do is use one of these turbo SIMs (in my experience, unsatisfactory) or jailbreak it. Might s well by an Irish locked one. You can do the same to them. At time of writing you cannot unlock them as such.

    I'm afraid pwning a 3g iPhone will only jailbreak it. The phone will not be unlocked. The unlock only applies to a 2g iPhone. As has been stated, a turbo sim, or equivalent, will be needed for you to operate the iPhone on Vodafone
