This DOES NOT mean that the phone is unlocked. This is hardware

Now, a *software* SIM unlock--that's still days away. :)
Unlocks that require hardware don't really count for most. ;-)
But yes: the iPhone 3G, like every other GSM handset, will be unlocked.
However, now it matters much less since every iPhone 3G leaving a
store will either have:
1. A full contract, or
2. An unsubsidized price (which, yes, is more than even the old iPhone
pricing).
This means that both Apple and the carrier don't get screwed, so
people who still think they're somehow "pulling one over" on Apple by
unlocking the iPhone 3G can knock themselves out.
