Since we have discussed unlocking cellphones many times here...

Will Iphone's work in Jamaica without a sim card?

They'll have to pry my illegal unlocked cell phone from my cold dead.....oops what a minute, wrong forum

You can use an iphone but you will need a sim card cut to size most phone stores have the cutter.

So, once unlocked, I can just take my old iPhone to Digicel in Negril, and they will cut a new card and put it in the phone with the amount of minutes or data that I have purchased, correct?

RyanP - If you are using an old iphone, it may not even need a cut sim card.

Do you think the digicel sim card would work in this phone? I tried calling but did not get a sufficient answer. Want to buy it for a friend in JA.

Thanks for any advice.

It's an iPhone4. Old is relative, I suppose.

HA... yes, old is relative. I think the 4 an 4s do have mini sim cards so the digicel sim will need to be cut. I believe the iphone 3 still used the full sized sim.

rompcherry - my guess would be yes... usually the magic words are "unlocked" and "quadband". But I am no expert for sure!

If that is the case, then I will just have my old iPhone3 unlocked and use it. I suppose all I need to do when I get there is get a SIM card with minutes on it?
