This is great news I've always been a fan of zibri and have never had any problem with any of his work; but what I need now is how I am able to get a new iphone 3g at a reasonable price without the contract from O2 attached, assuming that this is able to unlock the phone to any network, as this has to yet be confirmed.

That's the next challenge ;)
eBay perhaps... or see how those PAYG prices turn out, especially in other countries.

Call me crazy, but I got my iPhone 3G through eBay for US$790. Others paid much more. I was, for some reason, very confident that an unlock was around the corner. Anyway, it seems my wait is over. You might want to check how much it costs to sign a contract then cancel it (cancellation fees and other stuff). In the US, a "contract-free" iPhone 3G costs $299 + around $400 for cancellation = around $700.

From what I have read the Zibri's method is quite dangerous if it fails (never had it happen) and also the bootloader changes are non-reversible which may cause problems if you ever need to have apple fulfill a warrenty claim. After reading all the dangers I am sticking with Pwnage, plus changing my loading pics and custom firmware, for lack of a better = ftw!
