    There are many phones that are exclusive to networks, it's just that the iPhone is most popular. I saw an advert for a phone exclusive to Orange today, so there's no difference.

    I think networks should be required by law to unlock devices once customers have completed their minimum term contracts, for free, or for a small fee.

    They are, but only upon request. :)

    If you request an unlock for the iPhone from O2 it will never be given even if you're not in a contract. Apple have decided to make the SIM lock permanent unless an unlock is mandated by law, which I don't think it is in the UK.

    Oh, I thought there was a law. Fair enough.
