Here's the situation: My son is going to school in Rome and I bought him an iPhone 4 off of ebay here in the U.S. It was supposedly unlocked and came with a something called a Gevey SIM card, which is supposed to allow you use it in Europe with a SIM card you buy there. Well, according to him, he simply cannot get it to work. He says he's read instructions on the Internet, watched youtube videos, etc. and nothing works. He even took it to an Apple store in Rome and they told him that it needs to be unlocked in the U.S. I'm honestly not even sure what that means. Who here would unlock it for me?

Just wondering if anybody here knows what can be done, if anything? I'm afraid I may have been too superficial at researching this before I jumped in and bought the darn thing.

Thanks
