Personally, I would never order from MyWorldPhone.com again. They have a decent selection of unlocked phones but absolutely the worst customer service. They sent me the wrong phone and I ended up paying a 15% restocking fee and eating a bunch of shipping costs.

As a rule, and UNLOCKED gsm phone will work with any service provider PROVIDED that the phone operates in the providers frequency range.
However, all features may not work well (or at all) unless the phone is UNBRANDED as well. ( or branded to your carrier).
I purchased a K750i ( an awesome phone) from simoncell who told me it was both unlocked and unbranded. When i recieved it, turns out it was BRANDED "Vodafone", a British service provider. Simoncells then assured me that ther would be no problems operating on Cingular's net.
Unfortunately, there have been/are all sorts of conflicts.
No sympathy or help from Vodafone, SEUS or SE service center, and am still going round and round with simoncells.

just send it back to simoncells and demand a refund! there is a big difference between an unbranded phone and a branded one so they have breached their conditions of sale and sold a product that is not as described! they don't have a leg to stand on if it was advertised as unvranded. or use davinci and unbrand it yourself.

This is killing me, I'm not sure who to buy my K800 from!
Wireless Imports of course is a sure bet as they are featured on mobileburn.com, but they always have the highest prices...
Simoncells has a bad review, plemix horrible review, exoticphone.com really bad review:

plemix is not bad, in fact I would buy another phone there. They got a bad rap from a few posters but you know what, they offer 14 day refund if anything is wrong. I don't need the seller giving me a 90 day warranty when hardware is usually bad immediately.

Be careful buying form ebay, to my estimation 90% of "unlocked" phones that are sold there are not.
Even if the phone is unlocked it doesn't automatically mean it's debranded.
You have to ask the seller specifically about it.
A good place to unlock and debrand SE phones

yeah, there's a lot of places selling unlocked phones now, but they're not all equal. If you really want to take advantage of having an unlocked phone, try and get one that's factory unlocked and unbranded, rather than one that's been unlocked by a carrier. I got a v3i from
Sugarpipe.com recently, and I think they specialize in only factory unlocked imports, nice place check 'em out.
