This might not be everyones cup of tea but last week I decided to unlock my Nokia 6680 online. I used Wireless Unlocks at:
http://www.wirelessunlocks.co.uk/for just £4.80 including VAT. I sent my info at about 5 in the evening so wasn't surprised to have to wait til the next morning for my unlock code, maybe if you ask earlier in the day you will get it that day too. The instructions were fine and I got the code to work first time.
As for unlocking yourself in general, once I typed in the code the phone must display a success message and ask ok to restart. Well Talks doesn't seem to be alive at this point so if you put in a code and it all goes dead after the last letter of the code, push soft key one and hopefully your phone will restart like mine. Then just set your nearest city, time and date and your away.

Hi CarolI don't know about the sites you gave links to, but we know a nice chap in our area who has a shop selling everything mobile phone. He unlocks phones of all shapes and sizes for £10. From what I know, it doesn't cause any problems for TALKS, but does invalidate your warranty if it is under a year old.I'm sure Nutty will let you know more though, and will only be too willing to correct me if I'm wrong.

If so, will it work still using TALKS? Second, I've looked at the following sites http://www.trycktill.com/eng/ http://unlock.nokiafree.org/ and http://www.unlockitfree.com/All their methods vary a little. It seems that some talk about removing the sim card, whilst the others do not. Others will unlock anything - but then I read that the Nokia 6630 cannot be unlocked because it is a "BB5" model. This restricts the phone and cannot be unlocked via code or cable. Apparently I can only have this done via my mobile provider (costing about £30 I think)!Well, if anyone knows any different, please let me know. It seems though that I could do our 6600, if I'm daring enough ... Any comments (particularly experiences) most welcome.
