Unlock iPhone 4S now available (pre-orders open)

The wait is finally coming to an end for owners of the iPhone 4S. An unlock solution has finally arrived and will be in use between 20-27 of February. Many people may not know the new dev team, though they have been doing extensive work on unlocking the iPhone 4 and 4S. It can be somewhat safely assumed that the claims from the Chinasn0w dev team are authentic. The reason for this is that they have been actively contributing to the hardware unlock scene for months now. In addition to this , Beijingphonerepair.com is endorsing this which should add to the credibility of this unlock.

The developers of the TPSIM that will unlock the iPhone 4S have said that the sim interposers will release between the 20th and 27th of February.

The Chinasn0w dev team has put a steep price of $84.95, though this does include the shipping price all the way from China. As there doesnt seem to much progress with the unlocking of the iPhone 4S, this is probably your best bet at being able to turn your iPod 4S into a real iPhone 4S again. Prices may drop in the distant future, but due to the incredible demand for this device, it is unlikely that it will the price of $84.95 will drop anytime soon.

The TPSIM that the Chinasn0w team will release will act much in teh same way as the Gevey sim that many of you may know. You will put th sim interposer in between your sim card and you iPhone 4S. You will then need to do a few minor things. For the most part it should be an easy unlock.

Beijingphonerepair.com has made plenty of guarantees. They guarantee the a shipping tracker, delivery date, and technical assistance or your money back. It all sounds quite good. Will will just have to see if they actually deliver on it. There are also photos of the unlock working on the website which is encouraging
