Since the Apple iPhone only operates on the US AT&T network, here’s a link to the iPhone unlocker that enables you to run your iPhone on Rogers and any other GSM network.

Also note that the iPhone 4GB is currently on sale for $299 US but Apple only ships iPhones to US addresses so you’ll need to have a friend in the US order it for you.
Has anyone had any success with this? A relative in the US would like to get me an iPhone, but I’m wary as I don’t know if the unlocking procedure works.
I wouldn’t risk it. What if Apple does a software upgrade? If its the hardware hack, then the warrenty is voided too isn’t it? And do you get all the capabilities of the phone when it is running off the Rogers network?
Certainly too cutting edge for me since you’d likely get support from ANYONE if things go wrong.
There is a place in Scotia Plaza selling unlocked iPhones. Not sure how legal that is.
