Have any one received a Nokia 6680 or Nokia N70 UNLOCKED from any online retailer?

I fancy one and have to use it with diff networks but there is no unlocker available yet for these two.

Yes I know there are people online claiming that they can unlock these but there is no unlocker available in reallity.

I recently got a Mot L6 from CPW (Unlocked) and was thinking if they send phones unlocked it might be a good idea to get Nokia 6680 / N70.

Many Thanks

    From what ive heard vodafone will supply the unlock codes for phones bought on there network including the newer nokias for £20-30 which isnt too bad, or you could go into cpw/the link/phones4u and ask if the handset is gsm stock which would be unlocked as i know 02 dont lock there contract handsets but dont know how it goes for the 6680/n70 but i got a 6270 off 02 and it was unlocked if thats any help at all.

    My 6680 off O2 online was unlocked, as far as I know, all contract handsets are unlocked. I doubt I'll ever leave O2 now :j

    i purchased from orange and then asked them to unlock, they gave me an address and said send a cheque of £20.00 and i did that. they tried to contact me on the phone with unlocking code, my phone was switched off, 2 weeks or so after i received a paper from orange with the unlock code. N70 unlocked. orange has a nice service.

    Thanks all,

    I know Voda can unlock it for some quids, and so can Orange.
    but I was wondering would they ask me to wait for full contract term before unlocking.

    Great news about O2 and CPW. I think its worth applying for a contract with N70, I can still return it in 7 days if its unlocked (but there will be a credit check for my account).

    I asked and got my unlock code for a v80 on vodafone within days of recieving it, i just said i had a few sims and swapped them about so needed an unlocked handset.

    I hope to receive a unlocked one, or I will give your tip a try.

    I will post it here anyway.... I will just wait for a good deal from CPW/e2Save for N70 O2.

    Any one aware of one?

    Best available that i can see on cpw is 02 250 £35 double mins and 6 months half price. Orange website though is showing you can get the n70 free on a 100 mins 100 texts £20 a month if your wanting the lower monthy spend and possibly you could get the £50 for a new deal(trade in) and/or the recomend a friend if you know someone who is on orange they get £25 and you get £50 if they are still running those schemes.

    Thanks,
    I believe my one O2 contract is expiring in April, I think I will try on that one first.

    Hope they are good at keeping customer, I have been hearing good about them in forum.
