Hi everyone

firstly, apologies for the cross posting as talks users will see this e-mail 
too.  I wanna get as much advive as possible.

I'm on Orange pay as you go and own an n-gage phone.
I want to go across to Virgin mobile but I will have to unlock my phone to 
do this.  I've checked compatability with my phone and the Virgin network on 
their website, all good!

just two questions;

first, can someone tell me how the phone is unlocked? what process do you go 
through to get it unlocked?  can any tell me anything about that as, I know 
nothing about how a phone is unlocked and what it does to a typical mobile.

Second question is; will it have any adverse effects on talks at all?  I 
have talks on the mem card and not the sim mind you.  So, I just need a 
little info based on others experiences with this and maybe a little 
assurance that it's not gonna be a very messy process.

thanks for your help everyone.

Justin
