Default Nokia 6600.....Is this a good deal?

Never really been into getting the latest mobiles but I've been offered a Nokia 6600 from a friend of a friend for £125. Been used for a week & still got all packaging etc.

Also how much is it to unlock phones?

Cheers,
Ian

PMSL You're never gonna hear the end of that one Ryan Best start doing some PROPER press-ups so you can batter anyone who takes the piss

Lewis, is that definitely right about the locking? As I'd heard off a few people you can get 'em unlocked?

yeah best do mate, as i cant fight for shit at the moment

yeah acccording to a good source, once they've been bared, they cant be unbarred, they've apparantly got 1 write chips. Once it been blocked your fooked, unless you ship it abroad, outside the UK.

Have you used this service yourself? How come it's free? Surely there's a catch?
