How well does the iPhone work with other cell phone providers?

Denny asks:
Like if the iPhone was unlocked and you used T-Mobile as your provider. Will it work just as good? What if I do the cheapest plan will everything work, like the internet?

Just the visual voicemail, allowing you to just touch the name of the person who called and it plays it, rather than calling and listening to each one.
Also, with the unlocking process, the updates apple release will just relock it, and possibly brick your phone, rendering it useless. So be careful!

I don’t have the iphone but i have looked into it and done alot of research. The Iphone is probably one of the most high tech phones out there. Since it is Apples first phone, they have ran into many problems. Apples has brought out many fixes to the iphone called firmwares. Every month are so there are different problems. Such as texting order and contacting different people that aren’t with AT&T. If i were you i wouldn’t get the iphone. I am waiting. TOO MANY PROBLEMS! i have also heard of a 2nd generation IPhone so fewer problems and better than first Iphone.

Well if ya unlock the phone you will void the warranty. Yeppers Apple can tell too. When a firmware or update is sent out and it can be monthly depending on what updates they feel the need to send out it can relock the phone ..and make it a brick.
Also if you swap sim cards .. will also relock the phone
I just dont understand wanting to risk $399 to see if it will work and what happens when it doesnt!
