    Ah, just noticed James your a moby unlocker..... Cant blame you for trying to look after your interest :D

    As he and a few others have helped plenty of people here do that for free, I think the cynicism is all yours

    Are you connected with the website in the OP, by any chance?

    Where, linky please. :D



    Where's that info come from? Works in the N95 8GB so they cant be working that hard to plug the hole.... :confused:

    don't tell me you think they compiled the firmware for your N95 8gb sometime this or even last month? of course this was done months ago hence the firmware with the hole filled will not be out for months to come.

    for your ref, we don't just do unlocking so these do not effect us as much as you may think and of course i also sell them so that also ofsets the loss.

    so, as long as these sim don't start repairing phones aswel i think i will be ok thanks.

    Connected with the website..... Erm....... No, that ridicule as I suspected would be a knee jerk reaction to a good deal from a phone unlocker/dealer. You guys must know sooner or later the firmware updateable version will be launched. Cat and mouse chaps...... :confused:

    In the spirit of what this whole websites about Money Saving I thought a £4 unlocking device was better than a £15 + unlocking service. If its months before the hole is filled so be it, atleast someone can have a handy network bypass gadget until such times and that's IF they decide to update the firmware, if they don't then 4 quid does the job... right?

    You should stock them for the poeple who might not firmware update their phone!

    Like most other sites, people a quick to rubbish a good idea/deal.... :rolleyes:

    You should go and argue the point with the vendor..... :T

    Tut tut tut, some mother do av em...... :rolleyes:

    You should do some research before making a post that is missleading people into believing they are buying a device that will unlock their phone.

    If I published a web site detailing a new supercomputer that would never go out of date etc would you plug it for me ?

    I think not as you would know I was talking out my behind. Same applies for this sim attachment. Those in the know, understand what they do and they certainly do not unlock the phone.

    Just like people are quick to questions the sincerity of people like James (who has helped hundreds of people on this site) without bothering to look at all the free advice etc (and unlock codes) he has provided on this forum.

    FACT : THESE DO NOT UNLOCK PHONES !

    No thank you ! If you want to misslead forum users then I will not give it a rest !

    You should learn how to research (even if only in google) before making big wild claims about devices you know nothing about !!!:T

    Research, check the website it states
    Unlock Attachment for Nokia
    Designed to unlock operator locked Nokia phones
    So it doesn't unlock the phone it unlocks the network bar on the phone which is what this is all about and does very effectively!

    I guess at the end of the day they will decide whether or not this is of use to them or not regardless of a handful of phone unlockers worrying about profit which makes me think why you would want to give a negative take on this, do you have an interest in this product not working or maybe Turbosim sales would suffer?

    Wouldn't surprise me ;)
    big wild claims

    :D

    If I was worrying about profit then I wouldnt sit here every day unlocking phones for free for people on this site. Go into your local shop with a nokia phone and ask them to unlock it for free for you and see what they say. I have unlocked over 1000 phones for people on here all for free. Seen as most places charge between £5 - £10 to do this then my profit margin is way down but I dont care, all us phone unlockers are doing on here is saving people money, giving people the best advice and being as friendly as we can. Unforunately people like you have to try and make a mockery out of us saying we are saying things for our own gain. Over 1000 phones unlocked for free is not for my own gain but the people on this forum so I would think very carefully before you post any more comments again.

    Well, I can confirm these work on the Nokia E65 - got 1 locked to Orange, using it on "3" at moment with this device. I'm not complaining, Orange want £20.00 for code, most unlockers I've contacted want around £45.00 to unlock this model so for £4.00 I'm happy enough to keep my current firmware which by the way is the most current generic firmware:D
