Help needed finding PAYG camera phone on O2/unlockable??

Hi

It is my sister's birthday on Thursday and I want to get her a new phone for under £60. I want a camera phone and I have to be able to get it onto O2. I liked the 3220 but you can't unlock that by code can you and it is a lot more on 02 than orange.

Thanks

Liz

    All the O2 phones I have had, were already unlocked, I think this is still the case as O2 cant be bothered with the extra expense of locking them ;)

    So liz you may not have to bother with getting it unlocked, just try another firms sim card in it as soon as you get it, you might be pleasantly suprised.
