    sup!

    Got a N97 mini yesterday, Its locked to o2, and i want to use my Vodaphone sim in it as well as my o2 sim. Would also be handy to change for travel to the uk and US



    Where in town would be able to unlock it for me? And roughly How much would it cost?

    slightly related, updateding the n97 to the latest firmware?
    Does it have to be done similar to the 5800? Changing the product code.
    On o2 and the latest it has is V10 but V11 is out...

    Thanks

    Gar

    You shouldn't pay to have your phone unlocked anymore as all phone companies are obliged to unlock your phone upon request. Actually most of the make it available online nowadays and a quick search turns up:
