As far as if they unlock is automatic, I'm still in my first 60 days and on an Android device, so I can't say if they unlock will be automatic on an iPhone or not and I don't want to give you incorrect information. I've spent a lot of time in Straight Talk threads the last few months and generally what I've heard is that Android phones unlock automatically on or around the 60 day mark. I have seen iPhone users mention they had to contact Straight Talk for an unlock, but I'm not sure if those were isolated cases. Perhaps someone with iPhone/Straight Talk experience could speak on that specific issue?
Once unlocked, the phone should work on any carrier (in the US, at least). HTH!
This however might work for someone who would want to use the phone elsewhere after 60 days instead of waiting for 365 days past activation.
