Unlocked (what's this?)

What is an "Unlocked" phone?

Many cell phones are designed to use a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card to store subscriber data. These SIM cards are issued by the carrier and provide cell service to the phone. "Locked" cell phones will only recognize SIM cards from the carrier that originally provided the phone. Almost every cell phone provided by a US carrier is locked to that carrier’s network.

"Unlocked" cell phones will recognize SIM cards from any carrier using Global System Mobile Communications (GSM) technology. Customers with "unlocked" cell phones are able to use any GSM carrier of their choosing, including "pre-pay" or "no contract" SIM card options. "Unlocked" cell phones also accept international SIM cards that provide discounted rates while traveling abroad.

With the Sony Ericsson X10a Mini Pro, messaging is made instant! Who said smart phones had to be big? Sony Ericsson have taken everything that was great about the original X10 and shrunk it down into a package thats no bigger then a small box of matches and even managed to add a QWERTY keyboard along the way.

X10 Mini pro

My HTC Hero started playing up so I needed a cheap replacement until upgrade date and brought one of these. What can I say, I love the tiny thing. Screen is small but very usable, as is the keyboard. The phone works without lag and the menu system is very good. I have read reports about poor battery life but I think it lasts very well and I have no complaints there. Very impressed, prefer it to the Hero. All I wish is Sony Ericsson would provide the 2.2 update so that apps can be run from SD card
