Please log in for more thread options P.S. The US isn't unique in locking phones BTW.

>>I bought my Audiovox SMT5600 a month before Cingular bought ATT and I have
>>all 3 of my phones on a family plan with ATT currently. My wife wants a
>>new phone and the only option Cingular is giving me is to throw away all 3
>>of my phones(since they are locked for ATT) and buy 3 new phones with
>>Cingular so we can keep out family plan. It's either that or have 2
>>separate plans (2 phones on ATT 1 phone on Cingular). What I want to do
>>is unlock my Nokia and Audiovox MST 5600 and buy by wife a new phone then
>>place the 2 unlocked phones on Cingular. Anyone know of cheap places to
>>get unlock codes or have any suggestions. Anyone had any luck doing this?

>> I really hate the US for locking their phones and it really sucks that I
>> have to buy 3 new phones just to buy 1 and stay on the family plan.
