    Very easy, just needs a free code typing in on bootup.

    sorry but what is bootup? im tempted was going for the wildfire but this is £20 cheaper when u take into account top ups and id like orange Wednesdays. ive signed up to a tesco sim though but if its free unlocking worth a think.

    Bootup is when the phone boots up after you turn it on. Same as what your PC does :)

    I have a wildfire and its a great phone. Not overly complicated, great camera and very quick on the android market. I use it on 3, which has quick 3g internet. Can use it on the router at home, has pdf office and loads more. Its a great great phone! :)

    get the unlock code from here for free using the IMEI

    then watch this vid on exactly how to use it, (ignore the bit about him buying the code as you already have it)

    Get her a good condition used iphone.If you give her an SF after using an iphone it will be like giving her a piece of alien technology :D
    The iphone is far more user friendly than any Android handset.
