After a few weeks really wanting one, I finally got my iPhone yesterday. As opposed to my dad’s, mine came with the 1.1.1 firmware, and it was again my job to unblock it for use with my cellphone company here in Mexico.

This time I went straight to iphone.unlock.no and found a much easier procedure than last time, which works for version 1.1.1. This time I did not even need a computer, other than for reading the instructions. All I needed was the iPhone and a Wi-Fi connection. And I had it unblocked in less than 10 minutes.

Actually, two of them (my brother also got one.)

I have been using it for a full day, and I must say, I am in love with it. I still haven’t signed up for an unlimited-internet plan, but since I’ve had Wi-Fi available the whole day, I haven’t missed it.

My previous cellphone was a Sony K790, and I also had (still have) and HP iPaq as my PDA. The iPhone will replace both, and the only thing I’ll miss, or so it seems, is the “real” camera on the K790.
