That is what I did with my iPhone. I hactivated it and just stuck my AT&T SIM into it. I already had the $19.99 Unlimited MediaNet plan, so I could just surf the net and not rack up huge charges. I wanted to keep my 24% corporate discount and managed to keep it using this method. If you need to return the phone to Apple, just restore it and all traces of any unlocks are all gone.

I'm sure it will be the same on the new iPhone, despite Apple telling people that it can never be hacked.

You are right when you say that your 2 year clock resets because of the iPhone.

Now what I want to know is will I be able to hactivate my new iPhone 2 and swap SIMs from the old iPhone to the new one without resetting my contract AND retain the full 1 year warranty?
