[BTM] Selling a T68i

[Peter Loron]

You basically have 2 choices, depending on where you live, to get the 
phone unlocked.

One is to do a remote unlock yourself. You'll need the right kind of 
data cable, a "log" from an unlocking server, and a PC to run the 
unlocking software. I've used www.gsmphonesource.com to unlock my old 
T68, and was happy with the result. They sell all the stuff you need. I 
think the cable + log was around $18 + shipping.

The other is to find somebody in your area who does the unlocking. Your 
best bet there is to do some research on forums like 
www.howardforums.com to see what you can dig up.
