I am not one to trump up stories and create chaos in the blogosphere, but supposedly the fellows over at Bladox have unlocked the iPhone from its master. They are using the Turbo Sim card toolkit that Bladox produces. They are saying over on the user forums on Bladox’s site that the phone is 100% unlocked. But it seems like only 3-4 people have successfully unlocked it.

Now don’t get me wrong, this is great and all but what happens when AT&T or Apple get word of this, which most likely has already happened. Can you smell a possible update to 1.0.2? Which in my eyes will most likely happen, and to the people that think AT&T wants the iPhone unlocked, “You are dead wrong”. Why would they want it unlocked, yeah they are making a ton of money off the hardware, but mostly everyone knows cell companies make the money off the actual plan. I guess no one has told them that the iPhone has one the highest bill ratings out of most of the smart phone plans on the market. So the answer is “no” AT&T does not want this, and Apple certainly does not want this either. They like locking people into services, ever heard of ITunes.

Both of the companies like control, more in the direction of love control. AT&T likes censoring bands and Apple likes censoring anyone they can. But large companies thrive off control.

So for all of you that want to get out and buy an iPhone ($599) plus a TurboSim Card ($80) I dare you to do it, actually I double dare you to do it. I bet you in no less then 3 months that thing will be bricked and you will be SOL.

Now I would love this not to happen to you, but like I said these are companies that love control and love to control you.

Oh by the way the 2 of the so called 4 people that have got it unlocked are from Australia (Vodaphone)
