Quick question for the gurus: are there currently any iPhone firmwares or versions (UK particularly) which are not unlockable to all SA networks?

All firmwares are unlockable now including the future 1.2.0 (version 2)

The future unlock will be called "Pwnage" and released by the real dev team.

i used to, but i havent been able to connect for the past 2 days so im not sure whats going on... my AIM works fine though...
 
I think iPlus is the best so far, simply for convenience sakes as it loads up BSD, SSH and vt100 during the unlocking process.
 
Original Apple Screenshot utility

Apparently Apple built in a native screenshot function in the iPhone, but it is not yet activated. Some clever guys figured it out and you can now activate and use it - see http://www.tuaw.com/2008/03/18/ripdev-discovers-how-to-activate-iphone-screen-shots/for more info.

Basically you just hold the home button and flip the mute switch - takes a screenshot and stores it in your camera roll. Some people complain about image quality, but mine shows up perfectly as if I am looking at the original screen.

It works much nicer as the other screenshot apps I have tried :-)

Crack 1.2

Cracks is a screen cracking simulation for your iPod/iPhone made by iamcanaian. The point of this application is to scare someone into thinking that they broke the device. Trust me it works! When you launch the application, it will show a screen shot of a 1.1.3/1.1.4 springboard (it even has a few extra pages). Tap on the screen and BOOM!, your iPod/iPhone will look like the screen got cracked really really badly. Then if you tap on it again the screen will start to flicker insanely.

Note: Not good for epilepsy sufferes im sure as the screen flickers continously....
